Honda Research Institute Japan Co. Ltd, Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International and Shimadzu Corporation have jointly developed what they call the World’s first Brain Machine Interface. What does it do? Well, you can control your robot with the help of your thoughts! The technology used is the electroencephalography and near-infrared spectroscopy along with newly developed information extraction technology. It does not even require any physical movements such as pressing buttons. This technology will be further developed for the application to human-friendly products in the future by integrating it with intelligent technologies and robotic technologies. The BMI technology was introduced in the year 2006 and used a functional magnetic resonance imaging scanner to measure brain activities. The newly developed measuring device uses EEG and NIRS sensors and it can be transported to and used in various locations.
