Patent No. 6011991 Communication system and method including brain wave analysis and/or use of brain activity
Patent No. 6011991 Communication system and method including brain wave analysis and/or use of brain activity (Mardirossian, Jan 4, 2000) Abstract A system and method for enabling human beings to communicate by way of their monitored brain activity. The brain activity of an individual is monitored and transmitted to a remote location (e.g. by satellite ). At the remote location, the monitored brain activity is compared with pre-recorded normalized brain activity curves, waveforms, or patterns to determine if a match or substantial match is found. If such a match is found, then the computer at the remote location determines that the individual was attempting to communicate the word, phrase, or thought corresponding to the matched stored normalized signal.
