The Cyborg in Us All

imagine being able to operate your phone or ipod by just thinking about that task. one volunteer for a test had a electrocorticographic (ECoG) implant. its a tiny postcard-sized patch of electrodes on the damaged tissue on the parts of his brain that causes seizures.then had him play the game galaga with inly his mind as his tiny ship blew up the little invaders.it just goes to show you how fast technology is evolving before our eyes.
