Brain-Machine Interface Technology Enabling Control of a Robot by Human Thought Alone

Uploaded by Honda on Mar 30, 2009
Honda Research Institute Japan Co., Ltd. (HRI-JP), a subsidiary of Honda R&D Co., Ltd., Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International (ATR) and Shimadzu Corporation have collaboratively developed the worlds first*1 Brain Machine Interface (BMI) technology that uses electroencephalography (EEG) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) along with newly developed information extraction technology to enable control of a robot by human thought alone. It does not require any physical movement such as pressing buttons. This technology will be further developed for the application to human-friendly products in the future by integrating it with intelligent technologies and/or robotic technologies.
During the human thought process, slight electrical current and blood flow change occur in the brain. The most important factor in the development of the BMI technology is the accuracy of measuring and analyzing these changes. The newly developed BMI technology uses EEG, which measures changes in electrical potential on the scalp, and NIRS, which measures changes in cerebral blood flow, with a newly developed information extraction technology which enables statistical processing of the complex information from these two types of sensors. As a result, it became possible to distinguish brain activities with high precision without any physical motion, but just human thought alone.

...and if Roberts could help you...

Interesting Videos.

@bnel890 Unless we ever create a biological robot.
-
looks like another weird japanese show
-
"Robaatttt".
-
TBH i thought that bmi ment body mass index, but what ever you say honda :')
-
When she said 'robot' i thought she said 'robin'
-
Yes. I will walk around with an over sized, tricked out bike helmet and a box the size of a dumpster attached to it, to get my 300 million dollar robot ASIMO to raise its right hand with my mind......Thanks Honda

She says robot weird..
-
@OfficerFlake And imagine that all of those robots would become smarter than us, though, we would be able to feel and know more things.. like do not kill because..
well you get my point

@sharice420 robots cannot outsmart humans EVER, because robots only know as much as we have programmed it to know, therefore it cannot do something that we do not know
