A couple of months ago I heard about a monkey that could control a computer with their brain.  Here is a video. 

Of course this required implanted electrical nodes in the monkey’s brain and months, if not years, of learning the monkey’s brain-waves and then mapping them. Not really possible for humans yet.

Then a couple of days ago I heard about a gaming system that is starting to do the same for humans.

If you think about computer peripherals like the mouse in their infancy and look at the advances they have made in the past decade it is amazing. If you now apply that same rate of advance to devices like this, 10 years from now this might actually be useful…

What do you think? Scary? Cool? Interesting? Amazing?
