MND BRIEF: Device Enables Severely Motor Disabled To Communicate
An amazing development of fMRI technology has crossed the bridge between brain activity and social communication [1]. Reading brain electrical activity through electroencephalography already has allowed some patients communication through conversion of such electrical patterns to action such as driving a wheelchair or moving a robotic arm [2]. But spelling has prove more elusive until now, with fMRI analysis.
Then, quoting [1]"
"….By exploiting spatiotemporal characteristics of hemodynamic [blood circulation dynamics] responses, evoked by performing differently timed mental imagery tasks, our novel _**letter encoding technique** _allows_** translating**_ any freely chosen answer (letter-by-letter)_** into reliable and differentiable single-trial fMRI signals..**_.."
[![][1]][2]
fMRI of Brain
Well, this "letter encoding technique" does not look trivial….The illustration above, extracted from the research article shows the association of a thought letter to a fMRI pattern.
Such an association is nothing short of amazing. Too good to be true? I hope not…
