Following the recent release of the Action Plan for the Coordinated Development of Brain-Computer Interface Science, Technology and Industry in Guangdong Province (2026–2030), the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA) Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Industry Innovation Alliance was officially established in Guangzhou on July 2nd. The alliance has 124 founding members, covering the full spectrum of industry, academia, research, application, and finance.

In the field of rehabilitation therapy, brain-controlled upper and lower limb training systems have already been deployed in several hospitals across Guangdong. When patients imagine movements such as "raising a hand," "grasping," or "walking," the systems can decode brain signals in real time and drive exoskeletons or robotic arms to assist them in completing the movements.

In the field of assisted living, South China Brain-computer Interface Technology Co., Ltd.'s "Brain-Computer Smart Nursing System" can help users with physical disabilities independently control electric hospital beds, curtains, televisions, lights, air conditioners, and other devices.

On the consumer side, EEG biofeedback therapy devices allow children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) to "battle with concentration" in games, while wearable mindfulness meditation devices can help users ease anxiety, relieve tinnitus, and prevent motion sickness and seasickness. Brain-computer interfaces are moving from clinical medical applications toward the mass consumer market.

According to the Action Plan, Guangdong's key targets by 2030 include cultivating 100 new BCI technology companies, developing more than 10 hit non-invasive BCI products, and creating 100 exemplary BCI application scenarios. In the medical field, the province aims to establish 200 BCI wards and provide services for more than 500,000 patient visits cumulatively. The core BCI industry is expected to reach 10 billion yuan, while related upstream and downstream industries are projected to reach 100 billion yuan.

粤港澳大湾区脑机接口产业创新联盟在穗成立，首批成员124家

继《广东省脑机接口科技与产业协同发展行动计划（2026-2030年）》日前正式出台后，7月2日，粤港澳大湾区脑机接口产业创新联盟在广州宣告成立。联盟首批成员达124家，实现产学研用金全域覆盖。

在康复治疗领域，脑控上肢和下肢训练系统已在省内多家医院落地。患者想象“抬手”“抓握”“行走”等动作，系统即可实时解码脑信号，驱动外骨骼或机械臂辅助完成动作。

在生活辅助领域，华南脑控的“脑机AI智慧护理系统”可帮助肢体障碍用户自主控制电动病床、窗帘、电视、电灯、空调等设备。

在消费端，脑电生物反馈治疗仪能让多动症儿童在游戏中“用专注力战斗”，可穿戴正念冥想设备帮助患者缓解焦虑、改善耳鸣、防晕车晕船……脑机接口从临床医疗向大众消费市场迈进。

根据《广东省脑机接口科技与产业协同发展行动计划（2026-2030年）》，到2030年目标主要包括：新增100家脑机接口科技型企业；打造10款以上非侵入式脑机接口爆款产品；打造“百佳”脑机接口标杆应用场景，在医疗领域建成200个脑机接口病房，累计服务超过50万人次。脑机接口核心产业规模达到百亿级，辐射上下游产业规模达到千亿级。
