| Abstract | Over recent months, in Jose del R Millan's computer science lab in Switzerland, a little round robot, similar to a Roomba with a laptop mounted on it, bumped its way through an office space filled with furniture and people. Nothing special, except the robot was being controlled from a clinic more than 60 miles away--and not with a joystick or keyboard, but with the brain waves of a paralyzed patient. Millan's system, announced in September 2011 at Switzerland's Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, is a big step in making brain-machine interfaces more useful by splitting the cognitive workload between the patient and the machine. |
