Without more tests, I can't be sure, but my theory is that the brain-machine interface they installed at that time had a material defect.
Dr. Hatsopoulos also works on brain-machine interfaces, including ways that brain signals may one day be used to move prosthetic devices.
It serves as the key part of neural prosthetics for hearing aid, artificial vision, artificial limbs, and brain-machine interfaces.
And experts working on the brain-machine interface say that adapting such experimental efforts for human use may begin within a few years.
John Donoghue formed the company Cyberkinetics to facilitate commercialization of brain-machine interfaces.
Cognitive signals for brain-machine interfaces: an alternative paradigm to neuroprosthetics control.
Such a system provides for brain-machine interface for facial recognition, and the method has been referred to as cognitive biometrics.
This brain-machine interface is where external signals are collected and transduced into electrical signals for the brain to interpret.
Research on brain-machine interfaces is primarily in a preclinical phase but promises to enable thought-based control of computers and robots by paralyzed patients.
Neo's physical brain is connected into the Matrix via a brain-machine interface.
