Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), also known as brain-machine interfaces (BMIs), offer hope to those who have lost the ability to move or communicate. The pattern-recognition capabilities of ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I write about neuroscience and its intersection with technology. Despite the continued progress that the state of the art in ...

The simplest brain-machine interface, or at least the one we can use the most readily, is the human hand. We've structured pretty much the entirely of computing around the input it's possible to ...
