This news has been recently in the ongoing eta of development. The main purpose of inventing these devices has been to provide assistance to users while they work or play. It has also been designed to address the issue of monitoring health. In an official capacity, the patent application by Microsoft was released by Europe’s WIPO and the U.S. Patent Office on the 15th of August.
The main subject of the patent was about self-dispensing electrodes. Microsoft has therefore, come forward with a range of technical solutions in order to counter the technical problems that arise on applying conductive gel for electrodes. Products that use biological signals like the procedure of Electrocardiogram or any other technical project can receive a range of advantages by the solutions that Microsoft has come up with.
To understand the benefits, a brief knowledge of electrodes and the brain-computer interface is essential. Electrodes are placed on humans in such a way that it can sense electrical signals that come along during various biological procedures. This basically results in the proper functioning of the Brain-Computer Interface for entertainment and work.
This becomes a fairly advantageous market for Microsoft, considering the fact that BCI is very likely to appear in commercial devices. This can thereby, enhance the working scenarios as well as the nature of productivity.
The concept that Microsoft has presented provides a far-reaching technical solution which has resulted for an automatic electrolytic fluid dispensing proximate onto the tip of the electrode on the human’s skin to improve the reception of the signals provided by the electrodes.
This solution is possible as it involves a curved electrode, hollow in nature that has the ability to store electrolytic fluid. The electrode might also include a feature of selective retention which might be helpful in making the process hassle-free. This new invention by Microsoft can make a revolutionary change in properly utilizing and merging tech with BCi which indeed has a potential rate of success in the near future in a variety of industries.
In order to know more details regarding this patent, Microsoft’s patent application 20240268741 can be referred. This certainly creates room for inquisitiveness among Microsoft’s consumer base.
