China debuts world’s first two-way brain-computer interface with 100x efficiency

Published on February 20, 2025

Chinese scientists have developed the world’s first two-way adaptive brain-computer interface (BCI), significantly enhancing efficiency and paving the way for practical applications. According to the new study, the system boosts efficiency 100-fold compared to traditional BCIs.

Researchers from Tianjin University and Tsinghua University claim their innovation could soon be integrated into wearable and portable devices for medical and consumer use.

This system allows both the brain and machine to learn from each other, unlike conventional BCIs that only decode brain signals. This interaction ensures stable performance over time, a key step toward making BCIs more reliable in daily applications.

DARPA plans ‘major expansion’ of quantum computing push next month

February 20, 2025
WASHINGTON — The self-proclaimed “quantum skeptic” heading DARPA’s Quantum Benchmarking Initiative (QBI) tells Breaking Defense he is “pleasantly surprised” by how many companies’ quantum computing plans look feasible — and as a result, he’s weeks away from announcing a slew of new awards.The point of the QBI program is not to pay the private sector to develop the tech, which they’re already doing
