Brain-controlled interfaces move beyond the medical: Can ‘reading’ your mind prevent a car crash? | MedCity News: "What if driving became a more sophisticated technological experience, so that instead of relying on just the motorist, the car itself would be behind the wheel?



Recent advances in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are slowly turning this into a real possibility. BCIs enable direct communication between the brain and a computer, and thus, any external device. This is done using mechanisms that monitor our brain activity and translate this into language that computers can read."
