University of Washington researchers have demonstrated a non-invasive human-to-human brain interface, with one researcher able to send a brain signal via the Internet to control the hand motions of a fellow researcher. Previously, researchers at Duke University had demonstrated brain-to-brain communication between two rats. But University of Washington researchers Rajesh Rao and Andrea Stocco believe […]

Monkey Mind Over Matter
A monkey has successfully fed itself using a robotic arm controlled by signals from its brain. The researchers behind the device, from the University of Pittsburgh, say the breakthrough could lead to the development of brain-machine interfaces for people with spinal cord injuries and those with “locked-in” conditions such as Lou Gehrig’s disease. “Our immediate […]
