Mind Reading Computer System May Help People with Locked-in Syndrome - Science Nation

The video discusses the challenges faced by locked-in syndrome patients who are fully conscious but unable to move or communicate. Neuroscientist Frank Gunther and his team are developing brain-machine interfaces to help these patients communicate through computers and robots. Experiments using EEG caps show how brain signals can control speech synthesizers and robots, offering hope for improved interaction with the world. The technology holds promise for enhancing the lives of locked-in patients by enabling them to manipulate computers and robots using their brain activity.
