520 _a"For decades scientists have pondered, speculated on, and pooh-poohed the possibility of a direct interface between a brain and a machine--only in the late 1990s did scientists start learning enough about the brain and signal-processing to offer glimmers of hope that this science-fiction vision could become reality." (POPULAR SCIENCE) This article examines research focusing on how the brain's electrical activity can be used to control certain machines which, in turn, may help handicapped people overcome certain disabilities once the brain-machine interface is further developed.
