What is the Human-Machine Interface?
Evolution of the interface between Human-Machine Intelligence. A brain-computer interface (BCI) also called a Neural-Control Interface (NCI), Mind-Machine Interface (MMI), Direct-Neural Interface (DNL), or brain-machine interface (BMI) is a direct communication between an enhanced or wired brain along with an external device. BCI vary from neuromodulation in that it allows for bidirectional flow of information. BCIs are often directed at researching, mapping, assisting, augmenting, or repairing human sensory-motor or cognitive functions. The origin of BCI began with Hans Berger's discovery of the electrical activity of the human brain and the development of electroencephalography (EEG). In 1924 Berger was first to record human-brain activity by means of Electronic Ephalo Graphy (EEG). Berger identified oscillatory activity, such as Alpha wave or Berger's [...]
