Two microelectrode arrays in the “hand area” of the brain measure neural activity. A recurrent neural network (RNN) then converts the signals into probabilities for each character. These probabilities ...

In the computer age, it might seem as though proper penmanship is becoming less important with each passing day. Yet sloppy handwriting can hurt students' academic performance, from their class grades ...

As part of the BrainGate clinical trial, researchers are using tiny electrode arrays to record signals from the motor cortex of the brain. Those signals can then be used to control robotic prostheses, ...

I find it funny that only one of the styles (#4) is what I would consider "handwriting". I think you'd call it "cursive"? The others are a form of "typewriting" that some of my mates developed in ...

I’m no stranger to the pitfalls of forgetfulness. It’s easy for things to slip our minds, especially when we’re working on a million things at once. Sure, we’ve all got a calendar and automated ...

FRANKFURT—Harald Geisler wants to make you as brilliant as Albert Einstein. Or at least let you write like him. Or at least write in his handwriting. Mr. Geisler, a typographer here, is one of a ...

My handwriting (although not neat) is now a font on my computer. It took 10 minutes and now I have a custom font to use in e-mails, scrapbooking projects or Web projects Here's what you do -Go here to ...

Researchers have, for the first time, decoded the neural signals associated with writing letters, then displayed typed versions of these letters in real time. They hope their invention could one day ...
