INTRODUCTION:
UNDERSTANDING BCI

In healthy subjects, the primary motor area of the brain sends movement commands to the muscles via the spinal cord. 4/6/12

A new treatment is being researched: Electrodes measure In many paralyzed people, activity from the brain. A this pathway is interrupted, computer based decoder translates that is due to a spinal cord this activity into commands for injury. the control of muscles, prosthesis or a computer.

ADVANCES

ADVANCES LIMITATIONS

Thought control and prediction of future thoughts. Deletion or recording of memories

CHALLENGES
Permanent damage to brain. Virus attack on brain.

LIMITATIONS
The brain is incredibly complex. The signals are weak and interference can happen. There are chemical processes involved as 4/6/12 well,

FUTURE SCOPE
