Reconstructing Sound

Caption

Using a brain-computer interface, a team of researchers has reconstructed English words from the brain activity of rhesus macaques that listened as the words were spoken. The image shows spectral analysis of the sound of the words the primate heard, as well as the corresponding neuronal spikes associated with each word.
