Adam Wilson, doctoral students of biomedical technical at the University of Wisconsin developed a device called Brain-Twitter that members of Twitter allows to post messages through the electrical stimulus generated by the power of mind.
Brain-Twitter application replaces the role of keyboard for typing messages. A red hat with an electrode and load to monitoring of brain activity to become a text. Everything in brain and then delivered directly to computer and written on the screen.
“Development of this device can be used to help the people with” locked-in syndrome “, where they generally have a normal functioning of the brain but can not speak or move due to illness or injury,” said Wilson.
The idea to create this device is when one listener at a radio event said that “it will be very exciting if users of Twitter can send messages only thinking of itâ€. Wilson necessarily invites colleagues, Justin Williams to make this breakthrough.
But Williams is not yet know when this invention can be marketed specifically for people with locked-in syndrome. He said only very happy and proud to be the invention of it.
