Brain Invaders
For gamers who either can't use a typical interface, or don't care to, fear no more! Researchers @ Washington University in St. Louis. have created a non-evasive system for brain-machine interface using brain surface readings and an Atari 2600.
"The teenager had a grid atop his brain to record brain surface signals, a brain-machine interface technique that uses electrocorticographic (ECoG) activity - data taken invasively right from the brain surface. It is an alternative to a frequently used technique to study humans called electroencephalographic activity (EEG) - data taken non-invasively by electrodes outside the brain on the scalp. Engineers programmed the Atari software to interface with the brain-machine interface system."
