Abstract

As the power of modern computers grows alongside our understanding of the human brain, we move ever closer to making some pretty spectacular science fiction into reality. Imagine transmitting signals directly to someone's brain that would allow them to see, hear or feel specific sensory inputs. Consider the potential to manipulate computers or machinery with nothing more than a thought. It isn't about convenience, for severely disabled people, development of a brain-computer interface (BCI) could be the most important technological breakthrough in decades. A Brain-computer interface, sometimes called a direct neural interface or a brain-machine interface, is a direct communication pathway between a brain and an external device. It is the ultimate in development of human-computer interfaces or HCI. BCIs being the recent development in HCI there are many realms to be explored. After experimentation three types of BCIs have been developed namely Invasive BCIs, Partially-invasive BCIs, Non-invasive BCIs.
