Whatever you think in your mind, the machine is falling. You may have heard of such a device in a story or seen in a science fiction movie. But in fact, researchers have come very close to making such a device.
In the future, researchers at Facebook are thinking of creating a device that can use a brain to type a word and send it in the form of a message. Facebook officials said on Tuesday that a new study had expected results.
If this research is successful Facebook will be able to create wearable technologies, including Augmented Reality (AR) glass. It is possible to communicate with each other even without using a smartphone.
According to a Facebook blog post, there is a huge potential for AR to be easy to communicate with. In this, people no longer have to look at the phone screen. Besides, you do not have to lean towards the laptop. Can exchange important information in the eyes of the people.
Facebook announced on 20 of their research lab Building 1. There is work on the computer brain interface. Regina Dugan, head of the computer brain interface project at Facebook at the time, said that Facebook was going to create a 'silent silence system', which would be able to type those words in minutes directly from the brain. It will be able to work faster than a word can type on a phone.
Researchers at several universities, including Stanford University, have been successful in using this technology in paralyzed patients in separate studies. However, in their study, the electrodes need to be separated from the patient's brain. But Facebook researchers say that their research can be communicated only if the device is worn on the head.
Facebook has always kept a close eye on such imaginary projects. In the meantime, Facebook has been embroiled in various scams with their data protection.
Their research articles have been published in the journal Nature Communications.
Facebook authorities say their research needs to be taken further. There is still a long way to go for the development of such instruments.
Elon Musk's company Neuralink recently announced a new initiative to connect computers to the brain.
