Ahhhhh this is so cool! This is the type of architecture I'm interested in doing research on. I'm currently doing computer architecture research, but I have great interest in figuring out how to interface micro processors with the human brain. I was going to take Applied System Neuroscience this semester, but it got canceled.

I honestly would love to see these used for both input into a machine by the user and for controled and regulated data input into the brain. IE, you need to learn math, just upload everything you need to know into your brain. No more fusing with long hours of doing stupid math problems.
Plus people in critical jobs like medics and stuff could pull data on people very quickly with just a thought. IE someone gets shot. The medic sees them, pulls info on who they are, medical history, etc with just a thought. Obviously someone will write a neural virus that'll royally fry someone's brain, but that's to be expected and totally planned for, or we're going to have a lot of corpses if people start using this a lot. |

Wow that is pretty neat, interesting that such research has gotten so far without any interferance from "ethical" groups.

Whoa! If I could "control TV with my brain," maybe I could find something interesting on there once in a while!
I don't like so much the idea of "instant data input" though. Many disciplines require access to multiple sources of conflicting "data" and some experience in weighing them. |

Seriously though, this would had all sorts of nifty appliances (and threats for that matter -privacy, anyone?) With a chip like that, first-person shooters would take a whole new meaning and surfing could be as fast as you can think. Pr0n at the speed of thought -simply "wow." In a way, reminds me of that scene in "Back to Future 2" where two kids are trying to play a old video-game. They can't and don't understand why until the protagonist shows that the pistol doesn't move by thought, needing "manual" aiming instead of just plugging a wire to your brains. |
