interface
︎ ︎Unlike brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), BPCI employs a reverse mechanism: it bypasses direct neural data reading as the central command, instead forging a distributed biological network that relays information to corresponding sensory cells for the brain to decode naturally.
︎ Signals from cultured, modality-specific sensory receptor cells (e.g. Merkel cells for tactility) are encoded using optogenetic techniques and transmitted to corresponding endogenous counterparts via optical encoding leveraging the fascial network as a systemic relay conduit, where collagen fibers serving as the primary waveguide and intrinsic mechanosensory stimuli act as piezoelectric amplifiers for enhanced propagation.
features: bio-first → protection against digital, synthetic and quantum interference + ultra-low-energy and memory → alleviated computational burden on the body & reduced reliance on data centres → reduced C02 & water pollution
future plans: boosting information fidelity from low to high resolution through multiplexed optogenetic encoding, hybrid signal amplification and multi-cell parallelism
