Perhaps the idea to turn to the people into ciborgs sounds a priori chilling, but the engineers of the laboratory of Intel in Pittsburgh, have been marked as objective to develop you implant in the brain who allow to directly control all type of electronicses through the cerebral waves, technology that will begin its commercialization in 2020.
The investigators prehorseradish tree that the consumers adapt quickly to the idea and, in fact, long for the freedom of not needing a keyboard, a remote mouse or control to sail by the Web or to change of channel in the television. Also they predict that the people will begin to get tired of multi-tactile devices as it is the case of the new intelligent telephones or like the outlandish Surface Table de Microsoft.
As far as the cerebral waves applied to the technology of the real world, still he requires of some complex studies in the processes of decoding of the cerebral activity. The engineering equipment of Intel already has made use of cerebral explorations through fMRI (image by functional magnetic resonance), facing recognizing the coincidence in the cerebral landlords from thoughts similar in a great diversity of actions marked during the carried out tests.
Over the years, a great number of investigators has realised important advances in this type of tasks. For example, the engineers of Toyota recently developed a wheelchair controlled with the cerebral waves, and the investigators of the University of Utah, created a wireless neurotransmitter that allows the monkeys to control a series of robóticos arms.
If the scientific ones finally manage to translate the cerebral waves in concrete actions, there is no reason for which a virtual world with an ample phantom of activity could not be created ligature to the cerebral waves. Perhaps thus he is, we are seeing the arrival of the influence of Matrix in the real life.
