Brain Computer Interface / BCI at LHS

There's been interest in exploring brain-computer interfaces - ie, ways to read a human's brainwaves and use the output for either art, or controlling software and hardware.

Events

Our next event is Wednesday January 26th at 7pm at the hackspace. Sam from the Paris Tmp Lab give us a talk about BCI and demo their current project.
