President and co-founder of Emotiv Systems, Tan Le, said the brain-to-computer interface was undoubtedly the future for video games.
His team at the Neural Systems Laboratory, University of Washington, hopes to take brain-computer interface (BCI) technology to the next level by attempting to teach robots new skills directly via brain signals.
As reported by Susan Young at the MIT Technology Review, a woman who is paralyzed from the neck down is using an advanced brain-computer interface to operate a robotic arm.
The PC-to-TV interface manages all content between the computer and the television.
The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory have partnered together on a successful trial for a brain-computer interface that allows a person to control a robotic arm using only their thoughts.
It would be another bit of sweet vindication for Xerox PARC, which was maligned for years as the lab that invented great stuff--the computer mouse, the point-and-click interface, Ethernet networking--but did little to let Xerox shareholders cash in on it.
Xerox invented the graphical user interface, laser printing and zippy computer-to-computer communications.
For someone with the current brain-computer interface technology, it takes tremendous concentration and effort to type out a short message on a computer screen.
