This trial is enrolling 34 participants with cervical spinal cord injury to test the safety and efficacy of the WRS, a minimally invasive implantable wireless brain-computer interface (BCI). BCI is a technique using a computer and connected electrodes in the brain to record brain activity and also to control an external device. If included, participants will undergo implantation of the WRS system and complete brain-controlled tasks. Final testing will be performed after 6 months.
