Researchers from Georgia Tech havedevelopeda tiny, minimally invasive, brain-computer interface (BCI). The device is small enough to fit between hair follicles, and need only be inserted very slightly under the skin. It is thought that this super-compact new “high fidelity” sensor will make continuous everyday use of BCIs a more realistic possibility. For many tech enthusiasts and futurists, BCIs play a large role in the expected evolution of human interaction with tech....
