A new project dubbed Brainternet
can turn the brain into an Internet of Things node online. The ‘Brainternet’
project streams brainwaves onto the internet. Essentially, it turns the brain
into an Internet of Things (IoT) node on the World Wide Web. IoT refers to
connecting any device with an on and off switch to the internet.
Brainternet is a new frontier in
brain-computer interface systems. There is a lack of easily understood data
about how a human brain works and processes information. Brainternet seeks to
simplify a person’s understanding of their own brain and the brains of others.
It does this through continuous monitoring of brain activity as well as
enabling some interactivity.
