Mudra Link: This bracelet enables neural control of various devices

Mudra is now offering the Mudra Link for pre-order. This input device can be operated on a neural level, so to speak. Specifically, it is a wristband that is designed to recognize various gestures. The manufacturer also emphasizes the possibilities for personalization. This means that the system can be easily taught and should be able to use these for input.

Users can learn up to seven gestures and assign various functions to them. Furthermore, it should be possible to derive the pressure applied when two fingers are pressed together - this could be used to implement a type of analog control. According to the manufacturer, the device is compatible with numerous systems and can be connected via Bluetooth and, therefore, wirelessly. This input device could be used in many different ways. For example, control in virtual reality is conceivable, but users with restricted movement could also benefit from the Mudra Link.

In addition to the 3 neural sensors, an acceleration sensor is also installed. The battery life of the 36-gram input device is specified as up to two days, and Mudra uses stainless steel for the electrodes. The Mudra Link is protected against water and dust ingress according to IP56 standard. The Mudra Link is now available for pre-order at a price of 199 dollars, with delivery scheduled for January 2025.
