Turning Thoughts into Action: Pretty cool!

Yes, I have been gone for a bit, but now I am back, with a cool topic, IMO. Check this one out: Using cyberkinetic technology, we have already trained a monkey to move a cursor using...only HIS thought. Nothing more.

"Five quadriplegic patients might be months away from testing a brain-computer interface created by Cyberkinetics, a privately held company in Foxboro, Massachusetts. The company's system, called BrainGate, could help patients with no mobility to control a computer, a robot or eventually their own rewired muscles, using only their thoughts"

Yes, interesting, it may be on the public market by 2007 - or sooner. The ability to control things with your mind, simply by using this technology.

Awesome. This is like Science Fiction turning into Fact.

If this technology is a success, then we will soon use Robots in our day to day lives.
