INTRODUCTION

Also known as “The Brain Gate Neural Interface

System”

It is based on technology :

- to sense

- to transmit

- to analyze and

- to apply the lang. of neurons

Principle & Operation behind this is intact brain

function

- through “Brain Gate Pathway”

NEW TECHNOLOGY TO BE IMPLANTED TO HUMAN BODY

Computer and Human Body to be “MERGED” (BCI)

May be instead of using our mind the computer will think for

you

This is done by using a new technology called

“BRAIN GATE TECHNOLOGY”

This technology is used to control the computer or TV with

thoughts

BRAINGATE TECHNOLOGY

Introduced by “AMERICAN COMPANY CYBERKINETICS”

It is mainly designed to take advantage of the many

patients

Brain gate system allows to create an output signal

from the patients brain

The signal from the brain is passing route through the

nerves

The signal passed by nerves is given to sensor which

located in brain

BRAINGATE TECHNOLOGY

Components:

Brain gate implant

Brain gate cable Assembly

Brain gate Cart

Neural Sensor

Decoder

BRAINGATE PROCESS

The sensor is placed on the surface of the

brain in motor cortex area that controls the

movement

The paristo is attach to skull

It receives the electric signals from the

sensor

BRAINGATE PROCESS

A cable connects sensor to an external signal

processor in cart that contains computer.

The computer translate brain activity and create

communication output using custom decoding

software

BRAINGATE TECHNOLOGY FIRST

DEMONSTRATED ON

Phillip Kennedy conducted first experiment on

brain gate system.

He conduct his experiment on monkey i.e

operating a robotic arm with BCI

WHY TO CONNECT THE MOTOR CORTEX ?

BRAINGATE TECHNOLOGY FOR MAN

William Dobell conducted his experiment on

human being(Nagle) of BCI

It is used in military application and

clinical purpose

It is flexible and faster

ADVANTAGES

Patients can communicate with the outside world

and control external devices like:

1.computer

2.televison

3.electrical and

mechanical devices

BRAINGATE TECHNOLOGY

Cost:

It is highly cost

Performance:

Very fast

Highly complicated

CONCLUSION

This technology is far from being an option for

the public .

But something similar will must definitely be

available in future

We can have a robot completely controlled by the

thoughts & can do any work obviously very much

effectively.

There won’t be any masterminds like astrophysics

“Stephen hawking” paralyzed.

It can be a boon not only to the paralyzed persons but

also to the entire humanity.

FUTURE IMPLICATIONS:
