Engineer’s MagNI can be wirelessly charged and programmed with magnetic fields
A team of Rice University engineers has introduced the first neural implant that can be both programmed and charged remotely with a magnetic field. Their breakthrough may make possible embedded devices like a spinal cord-stimulating unit with a battery-powered magnetic transmitter on a wearable belt.
The integrated microsystem, called MagNI (for magnetoelectric neural implant), incorporates magnetoelectric transducers...
