Cornell researchers created the smallest wireless neural implant to measure brain activity and report it back optically.
The device is powered and communicates using red and infrared laser beams that pass through the skull.
In tests, the implant functioned for more than a year in mice without affecting their health or behavior.
The system uses a semiconductor diode and optical encoder to process signals and transmit data.
The device, named MOTE, is a tetherless, optoelectronic system designed for long-term use.
Researchers hope the technology could extend to other tissues and MRI-safe settings.
Power and data delivery rely on light-based methods, reducing tissue irritation compared to wired implants.
The implant measures activity from single neurons to broad brain waves in the barrel cortex of mice.
The study was published in Nature Electronics and supported by Cornell researchers.
The discovery marks a milestone in miniaturizing neural interfaces for long-term use.
