Learn About: BrainBrowser
From the article, Georgia State University researchers have come up with a Web browser that allows people to surf just by thinking. Previous research has shown that it is possible to move a cursor by controlling neural activity. The researchers’ BrainBrowser Internet software is designed to work with the limited mouse movements neural control allows. The browser window is divided into an upper section that resembles a traditional browser and a lower control section. Common controls like “Home”, “Refresh”, “Print” and “Back” are grouped in the left-hand corner and provide feedback. When a user focuses his attention on a button, it becomes highlighted, and when the user successfully focuses on clicking the button, it emits a low tone.
