MIT researchers have developed an universal algorithm for a neural prosthetic aid that can link an individual's brain activity to the person's intentions, and then translate that intention into movement.
A new technology in Japan could let you control electronic devices without lifting a finger simply by reading brain activity.
The U.S. military is working on computers than can scan your mind and adapt to what you're thinking.
A team of world-leading neuroscientists has developed a powerful technique that allows them to look deep inside a person's brain and read their intentions before they act.
The author looks at the growing community of people who believe that they are being targeted by government mind control weapons and the real-life U.S. defense programs that could be the inspiration behind these fears.
A new, implantable and wireless brain chip can create artificial connections between different parts of the brain, paving the way for devices that could reconnect damaged neural circuits. Scientists say the chip sheds light on the brain's innate ability to rewire itself, and it could help explain our capacity to learn and remember new information.
A new type of computer that mimics the complex interactions in the human brain is being built by UK scientists. The first of its kind in the world, it will be used to help researchers engineer fail-safe electronics.
A man paralysed from the neck down by knife injuries sustained five years ago can now check his email, control a robot arm and even play computer games using the power of thought alone.
A new brain-computer-interface technology could turn our brains into automatic image-identifying machines that operate faster than human consciousness. Researchers at Columbia University are combining the processing power of the human brain with computer vision to develop a novel device that will allow people to search through images ten times faster than they can on their own.
In a step toward linking a person's thoughts to machines, Japanese automaker Honda said it has developed a technology that uses brain signals to control a robot's very simple moves.
