One
of DARPA's program managers—a neuroscientist who works in DARPA's
Biological Technologies Office—believes we will someday be able to
control things with our minds. Dr. Justin Sanchez is not talking
about psychic powers or telekinesis, he's referring to brain implants
that convert brain signals, allowing you to control your environment
with your thoughts. You could control different aspects of your home
with just a thought, or communicate with friends and family through
your brain. We already have examples of this with current technology,
with brain implants enabling control of a prosthetic arm or allowing
people with memory loss to regain their memories. Imagine walking
through your home with lights turning on and off at your whim,
temperature adjusting appropriately if you're uncomfortable, and TV's
displaying your favorite channel or website at a mere thought.
