For a long time, communicating through the power of thought has been considered to be a cheap trick that con artists use to lure innocent victims into their games. Now, scientists at the University of Southampton (USouthampton) have managed to prove that this can, indeed, happen between two people. The new study constructs on previous Brain-Computer Interfacing (BCI) work, which demonstrated that brain impulses could be used to control machines such as computers and wheelchairs. This new study builds on that, but lead researcher Dr. Christopher James takes BCI to a different level. In regular BCI, electrodes capture brain signals and relay them to a computer, where dedicated pieces of software analyze them and translate them into commands a computer can understand, such as streams of “1s” and “0s” (the binary code). In the new investigation, James essentially led his team to discover that brain-to-brain (B2B) communication was possible as well. “Whilst BCI is no !
longer a new thing and person to person communication via the nervous system was shown previously in work by Professor Kevin Warwick from the University of Reading, here we show, for the first time, true brain to brain interfacing,” the expert says. “We have yet to grasp the full implications of this but the...
