Coming Soon to Apple Devices: Brain Control Accessibility Features
- Apple partnered with Australian startup Synchron to integrate brain-computer interface technology into iPhones, iPads, and Vision Pro headsets for users with motor impairments.
- This collaboration follows Synchron's development of the Stentrode, a minimally invasive brain implant that translates brain signals into digital commands controlling devices without physical input.
- The system enables users with conditions like ALS or spinal cord injuries to operate Apple devices using thought alone through Apple's Switch Control and Personal Voice accessibility features.
- Synchron’s CEO called BCI a “next-generation interface layer,” and the technology’s trials with Apple devices have demonstrated real-world utility, including ALS patients navigating Vision Pro in VR.
- Although a full commercial launch remains years away, controlled rollouts with trial participants are planned later this year, marking a significant step toward expanded accessibility and human-computer interaction.

Apple probes next frontier with new brain implant standard. But what it really needs is to sell more iPhones
Apple showcased its latest sci-fi vision on Tuesday by announcing that users of its products may one day be able to control them with brain signals. If achieved, with the help of brain implants, it would mark another huge milestone for the company. The initiative, aimed at helping only disabled users, at least for now, shows that Apple still has its eye on cutting-edge innovation. But it also highlights the company’s challenge: Much of that inno…
