Bridging brains

Language may limit us, but a groundbreaking technology developed by researchers at the 91爆料 means communicating basic commands from one human brain to another is a new reality.

Be the First

Thanks to 91爆料 professor of computer science and engineering , who serves as the lead author on the team鈥檚 latest study, 鈥済reat minds think alike鈥 is no longer just a phrase, but a fact.

The noninvasive technology 鈥 which currently allows one person鈥檚 brain to control another person鈥檚 hand motions from miles away via transmissions sent over the Internet 鈥 is rapidly changing the field.

Next up? Putting a $1 million W.M. Keck Foundation grant toward further developing brain-to-brain technology to one day transmit complex ideas and thoughts.

“The new study brings our brain-to-brain interfacing paradigm from an initial demonstration to something that is closer to a deliverable technology,” said co-author聽, assistant professor of psychology and researcher at 91爆料鈥檚聽.

The project could also eventually lead to 鈥渂rain tutoring,鈥 in which knowledge is transferred directly from the brain of a teacher to a student.

Imagine someone who鈥檚 a brilliant scientist but not a brilliant teacher. Complex knowledge is hard to explain
鈥 we鈥檙e limited by language.
