We found a very interesting article about brain computer interfaces. But in this case it is applied to medicine. We believe this is the future for patients that are quadriplegic. Brown University researchers created an implanted brain-computer interface. Although it has only been implanted in pigs and monkeys without problems, scientists are positive that human implants are around the corner.

The wireless BCI allows the host to move freely and collects data, allowing scientists to analyze the brain activity when the subject is involved in a complex activity such as a social interaction rather than the movements of its limbs.

With a very powerful and efficient use of energy, this device is the size of a pacemaker. It can extract high quality rich neural signals and will be a huge help for human neuroscience once it is approved.

Brown researches were tasked to safely test the device on humans, without doing the implant of course. The result a test was very successful, were a quadriplegic woman is able to moves a robotic hand with her mind.

This breakthrough is extraordinary and a huge step for BCI's. When this technology is approved millions of patients suffering from various paralyzing diseases will be able to have a better lifestyle.

Scientists will be able to study the behavior of animals with Parkinson's disease, getting a better understanding and knowledge, hoping to find a cure in a near future.
