Brain-Computer Interface (BCI)

A brain-computer interface (BCI) is a direct communication pathway between the brain and an external device. This technology allows individuals to control devices or computers with their thoughts, bypassing the traditional motor pathways.

Key Components of BCI

• Brain Sensors: These devices detect electrical signals from the brain.
• Signal Processing: This step involves analyzing the brain signals to extract meaningful information.
• Output Devices: The processed signals are then used to control external devices.

Applications of BCI

• Medical: BCI can help individuals with disabilities to communicate or control devices.
• Education: It can be used to create interactive learning experiences.
• Gaming: BCI can enhance gaming experiences by allowing players to control characters or objects with their thoughts.
