The implanted electronics, protected by biocompatible ceramic encapsulation, preprocess data and include a custom microchip developed with the University of Ulm. This microchip amplifies and digitizes neuronal signals across multiple channels, while eliminating the need for battery replacements through an external inductive power supply. Furthermore, CorTec provides additional support, services, and components related to the Brain Interchange System to Medtech companies and startups in the neurotechnology sector.
