Merge Labs licenses Butterfly Ultrasound-on-Chip technology for brain-computer interfaces
Merge Labs and Butterfly Network entered a multi-year licensing agreement giving Merge access to Butterfly’s Poseidon Ultrasound-on-Chip platform for development of ultrasound-based brain-computer interfaces. Butterfly will serve as Merge’s exclusive CMOS-MEMS chip-based ultrasound partner, while retaining the right to license its technology elsewhere. The agreement enables R&D toward commercialization but does not itself demonstrate a working BCI.
