Scientists are to implant tiny computer chips in the brains of paralysed patients which could 'read their thoughts'.
US researchers from Cyberkinetics Inc are to be allowed to implant the chips underneath the skulls of patients.
The chips will map the neural activity which occurs when someone thinks about moving a limb.
Scientists will then translate those signals into computer code that could one day be fed into robotic limbs.
