10th Guangzhou High-End Medical Devices Exhibition Kicks Off, Spotlighting Breakthroughs in Brain-Computer Interface Technology

China News Service, Guangzhou, March 30th (Reporter Cai Minyan) Brain-computer interface, as a core frontier technology connecting the brain with external devices, is breaking down communication barriers between humans and machines. It is opening new pathways for the rehabilitation and treatment of neurological disorders such as stroke, ALS, and spinal cord injuries, becoming an innovation hotspot in the medical technology field.

The 10th Guangzhou International High-End Medical Device Exhibition (High Medical Exhibition) opened in Guangzhou on the 30th. With its broad application prospects in fields such as medical rehabilitation, disability assistance, and elderly care, the brain-computer interface industry became the focus of the exhibition. Several companies showcased their core technologies and products of non-invasive brain-computer interfaces.

By wearing a headband to collect brainwaves and using core algorithms to analyze user intentions, functions such as wheelchair operation without manual control are achieved. This technology can be widely applied in medical, educational, and research scenarios.

Regarding the industry's focus on the signal accuracy, stability, and power consumption of non-invasive brain-computer interface technology, Chen Yan, co-founder and general manager of Force Intelligence Technology (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd., stated that the core challenge currently lies in the insufficient accumulation of scenario-based EEG data. More clinical and home application data are needed to support algorithm optimization. "AI large models are key to technological upgrades, which can help build standardized clinical pathways. Combined with on-site data collection, they provide support for the application of non-invasive brain-computer interface scenarios and the verification of efficacy consistency."

Talking about future plans, Chen Yan believes that brain-computer interfaces will move from hospitals to health management and home scenarios, serving not only patients with brain diseases but also covering sub-healthy populations with issues such as emotions and sleep, and expanding into fields like education and industry. "In the future, brain-computer interfaces will integrate with humanoid...Robot"and other technologies are integrated to achieve the interconnection of everything through brain control, and this era is accelerating."

In the view of He Guanfeng, the head of the marketing department at ihnnk, brain-computer interfaces have already been applied in the fields of mental and psychological health. However, in areas such as neurosurgery and neurology, further deepening of research collaboration with medical institutions is still needed to expand and enhance application scenarios.

From the perspective of global competitiveness, He Guanfeng believes that China's non-invasive brain-computer interface technology is at a leading level. The core advantage lies in the vast amount of training data provided by the large population base, which can effectively enhance the accuracy of models and the breadth of application scenarios. Meanwhile, with the support of national and local policies, companies can access more medical resources, accelerating technological breakthroughs and industrial implementation.

Since 2025, the development of brain-computer interfaces in China has significantly accelerated, with various technologies entering the application verification stage and showing remarkable results. Despite the industry still being in its early stages, experts believe that brain-computer interfaces currently face numerous challenges in scientific principles, technical aspects, and ethics. With the deep integration of AI large models and big data technology, brain-computer interfaces will further enhance recognition accuracy and interaction smoothness, driving healthcare towards precision, intelligence, and personalization.
