Controlling devices by implanted electrodes in brain

I had to explain some scientific journals in my laboratory seminar yesterday, so I took a paper about neurally controlled robotic arm. People with posteriori tetraplegia is implanted electrodes in the brain and, using the firing data from this electrodes, the authors estimated the robotic arm's movement by Kalman filter. Kalman filter is used in car navigation system to estimate the position of a driving car from GPS information. In this paper, the tetraplegia patient can brought a bottle of coffee and drank it for the first time after her impairment.
I can't forget her joyful face after the task.
I wonder whether I will have enough bravery when we can control many devices freely using implanted electrodes in brain.

By "authors" maybe you mean scientists who made the robotic arm
In this paper, the tetraplegia patient can brought a cup of coffee and drank it for the first time after her impairment.
I wonder whether I will have enough bravery when we can control many devices freely using implanted electrodes in brain.
The sentence is grammatically correct but, I cannot understand what you meant by "enough bravery".
However, I also think the robotic arm is really cool!
Thank you for your nice corrections!
