A brain–computer interface (BCI), is a direct communication pathway between a brain and an external device. BCIs are often aimed at assisting, augmenting or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions. Thanks to the remarkable cortical plasticity of the brain, signals from implanted prostheses can, after adaptation, be handled by the brain like natural sensor or effector channels. Following years of animal experimentation, the first neuroprosthetic devices implanted in humans appeared in the mid-nineties. ......... http://www.makeahistory.com/index.php/your-details/222-the-worlds-first-commercial-brain-computer-interface-A brain–computer interface (BCI), is a direct communication pathway between a... more
