YEARS | MILESTONE IN BCI |
---|---|
1960s and 1970s | Development of invasive methods for BCIs that could detect brain signals and control simple tasks, e.g., moving a mouse cursor. |
1980s and 1990s | Development of non-invasive techniques for BCI such as EEG. |
2000s | Development of BCI used for restoring motor function of paralyzed or physically challenged individuals, e.g., using BCIs to control robotic arms. |
Recent years | Development of BCIs for cognitive enhancement such as improving memory or cognitive processing speed. |
