Algorithm enables brain-controlled computer cursor
This is interesting. (Copied from the online Mensa' newsletter "Brainwave" for this week.)
Could help crippled and paralyzed folks to be active on their computers... ~~~~ Laboratory Equipment Stanford researchers have designed the fastest, most accurate algorithm yet for brain-implantable prosthetic systems that can help disabled people maneuver computer cursors with their thoughts. The algorithm's speed, accuracy and natural movement approach those of a real arm, doubling performance of existing algorithms. When a paralyzed person imagines moving a limb, cells in the part of the brain that controls movement still activate as if trying to make the immobile limb work again. Despite neurological injury or disease that has severed the pathway between brain and muscle, the region where the signals originate remains intact and functional. more: Algorithm Enables Brain-Controlled Computer Cursor | Videos | Laboratory Equipment
