Researchers Develop New Feedback System to Control Robots Using Brain-Machine Interfaces

Brain-Machine Interfaces (BMIs) are a promising and expanding branch of robotics that has life-changing capabilities for those with reduced motor controls. By using electrodes on the skin (EEG) to record brain waves and then using these brain waves to operate an external robot (e.g. prosthetic arm) to perform actions in exactly the way the user requires, a BMI can be used to bridge a gap in the nervous system that may have been caused by injury or illness.
