I wouldn't call it "copious amounts of data directly" you still gotta train yourself to use it, and the interface itself should train itself to recognize it.

It might be enough to make people walk again though.

Partially correct, except the vast numbers of sensors have additional multiple uses including detailed monitoring, biofeedback, and actual input.
