Paralyzed patients may soon enough be given the chance to walk again thanks to a new development called the 'bionic spine'. This tiny device was developed by researchers from Australia. It is injected into a blood vessel next to the brain, enabling it to read electrical signals, feeding this information into an exoskeleton, bionic limbs, or a wheelchair.
Consequently, this can give paraplegic patients more mobility using just their subconscious thoughts. In creating the bionic spine, Neurologist and lead researcher, Thomas Oxley, from the Royal Melbourne Hospital hopes that through this device, function and mobility will be returned to patients with complete paralysis .
