At Nvidia’s GTC 2025, MedTech companies showcased brain-computer interface (BCI) innovations, highlighting how healthcare through better diagnostics, personalized therapy, and assistive technologies for people with disabilities, will showcase the real value of interface technology.
Collaborating with Nvidia and Google Cloud, these companies are dealing with challenges, like staff shortages and intuitive control systems, showing how interface technology, alongside partnerships, can transform patient care and accessibility, in another leap in healthcare.
Brainwave Interface Technology
Synchron, a leader in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, is partnering with Nvidia to integrate the Holoscan AI sensor processing platform into its system, enabling it to decode neural activity more quickly and more precisely.
The BCI company showed off its latest development in brainwave interface technology for patients suffering from paralyzes, to help them control their environment with pure mind power.
The brain computer interface technology allows users to control digital and physical devices, such as lights, music systems, and domestic appliances, using only their thoughts.
Synchron’s brain-machine interface technology has been transformative for those, like Rodney Gorham, a participant in a study who has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and now can operate his house.
Through the Apple Vision Pro, Gorham can visually interact with a drop-down menu placed on top of his living room and select actions like turning the heat up or down or turning on a fan, all through neural instructions decoded by the human interface technology.
The key to this interface technology’s success lies in Nvidia’s Holoscan platform, where real-time decoding of brain signals is enabled. Synchron’s long-term goal is to advance this system into a more general AI in neuroprosthetics and neuromodulation technology in the neural interface.
This would take the interface technology from an extensive range of brain data and enhance its adaptability and precision. Synchron aims to create a self-learned model that is able to infer a user’s intent more accurately and flexibly, pushing the boundaries of human machine interface technology.
AI in Neuroprosthetics
While Synchron is leading the way in interface technology for people with disabilities, other MedTech companies are using AI to enhance diagnostic and imaging products. Quest Diagnostics and Google Cloud are using generative AI to personalize healthcare insights and improve data management.
Meanwhile, GE Healthcare is using Nvidia’s AI to create autonomous imaging solutions for X-ray and ultrasound machines, to alleviate radiology staff shortages by automating repetitive tasks and optimizing workflows.
Using Nvidia’s Cosmos platform to train the systems in virtual environments, GE seeks to enhance efficiency, accuracy, and speed in diagnostics.
Final Thoughts
Synchron, Quest, GE Healthcare, and Nvidia collaborations are building the future of using AI and brain computer interface technology. Synchron’s innovation in brainwave interface technology will make assistive devices more intuitive and offer patients with paralysis increased autonomy. Nvidia platforms offer real-time brain signal decoding and other, demonstrating the strength of human machine interface technology to improve patient outcomes. These technologies can revolutionize healthcare by integrating human intention, AI, and real-time processing of data. But as AI continues to advance, should there be limits to how much technology is integrated into human health?
