I ran across Commercial brain computer systems are coming today (original article is here). This is a cool graphic:
I’ve talked previously about Human-Computer interface (HCI) work.
Invasive BCI technologies have incredible potential. In addition to the unique device-human interface challenges (primarily sensors), it will also require significant advancements in the basic understanding of the underlying electrophysiology (cortical and motor). As reported, EEG-based processing will continue to be a corner-stone for this work, just as it is for non-invasive systems.
This slide from the report (pp. 170) summarizes the uses and importance of this type of work:
Here’s a shorter overview of BMI: Mind Controlled Bionic Limbs

Another appliacation of this technology that would be beneficial would be for virtual reality. Imagine the BCI interface controlling a remote surgery or life-size 3D architectural mock-ups for home design.
i’v been studing about the brain chip & if you can do this so people with ADD-ADHD & people who has learning disabilities can get signals to the brainchip in the brain to a pc so they can learn better & faster from signals. The chip has to be bio-organic so it won’t hurt the brain. Please e-mail me back.
