Soon You are going to find your Thought dictating the Computer!!


Schalk shows a demonstration on how a computer algorithm can track the volume of music a person is listening to from brain waves.











A new revolutionary development in the world of technology is about to transform your dream of running your computer with your thought process without commanding with your hands. As per the paper ‘Man-Computer Symbiosis, published by one of the computer genius called J.C.R. Licklider which had outlined his long dream of the possible invention of an interactive computing leading to the development of graphical user interface.
Last week in the conference of Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Emerging Technology, another scientific genius gave his possible suggestion saying the time is not very far when people will be able to command computer and get it responded without touching a keyboard or a mouse or even speaking. He even further added as, "What I'm here to tell you is that this is not science fiction. This is an emerging reality,"
Schalk, the scientist, reasoned the slow interface as the root cause of the problem when it comes to human-computer interaction; as humans have to translate their thoughts into digital commands for making computer understand and functions as per direction or command.

In order to possibly bring it into reality the researchers who have been assigned the roles, are burning their midnight oil working with brain’s alpha waves comprising of neural oscillations with frequency around 8 to 12 Hz for rich syntactic representations creation which can be used for communicating with computers.
For convincing elaboration, Mr. Schalk had also displayed a video revealing the ways how with the use of attached electrodes to the human brain surface the computer games can be controlled by test subjects. In another demonstration it was shown how the patient shot monsters in the video game Doom using his thoughts. Using the joysticks for movement of the gun forth and back, the patient had used only his own thoughts that enabled gun shoot accurately. The genius scientist had also displayed how a computer could tell the distinctive difference of a person thinking of the sounds, "Ah" or "Ooh."

The third demonstration consisted of the detection of sound level of the music listened by a person that had been tracked moment by moment. "We're about that close." "To being able to play back the music just by listening to the brain," Schalk further added with much conviction.
