University of Washington researchers have performed what
they believe is the first noninvasive human-to-human brain interface, with one
researcher able to send a brain signal via the Internet to control the hand
motions of a fellow researcher.
Using electrical brain recordings and a form of magnetic
stimulation, Rajesh Rao sent a brain signal to Andrea Stocco on the other side
of the UW campus, causing Stocco’s finger to move on a keyboard.
