Your Cortical Avatar Technology
Eyes and ears perceive. Speech and hands interact. uCat digitizes both streams to unleash the potential of human thought.

Our Idea
Every 26th person struggles to move or speak due to a motor impairment.
Brain implants can extract these commands before paralysis nullifies them.
uCat turns these commands into personal avatar expressions.
