How We Make the Impossible Possible


We decode complex brain signals into accurate information for innovative neurodiagnostics using neural signal processing and data analysis technology.
We employ advanced biomedical and electrical engineering to develop groundbreaking neural bridging technologies for patients with spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, stroke victims, and other types of sensory-motor rehabilitation.
Our award-winning rehabilitative technologies accelerate recovery from acquired brain injury (ABI). We design solutions that provide both tactile manipulation of real-world objects, immediate feedback, and error correction using closed-loop techniques.
We help you build better, smarter health devices by combining world-class medical sensor engineering with advanced data analytics. Leveraging advanced machine learning and pattern recognition, we extract small, key signals from a sea of background data.

Battelle NeuroLife® Technology

Battelle’s NeuroLife® wearable sleeve showcases our neural bypass expertise in developing life-enhancing products. For the first time ever, this brain-computer interface (BCI) technology allows us to measure the nerves and muscles of the body in real time with high resolution. The result is targeted stimulation interventions that recreate complex, dexterous movements.
