The Brink Bionics Impulse is a neural mouse interface that's designed to work with current gaming peripherals and give gamers the power to "play at the speed of thought." The neural mouse interface gives gamers the ability to control their cursor with their mind when they wear Impulse like a glove.
The first-of-its-king gaming peripheral is designed to recognize intentions to click the mouse, so that impulses can be registered at faster speeds. Using built-in sensors and a machine learning algorithm, Impulse is designed to read the biosignals of muscles and predict gamers' desire to click. As Brink Bionics describes, "Essentially, we’re cutting out the time lag between when you think about clicking and when your finger actually executes on that movement through muscular contraction."
