machines Recently two researchers Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytechnic School in Lausanne Switzerland demonstrated 展示 a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person s thoughts In the laboratory Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts Our brain has billions of nerve cells These send signals through the spinal cord 脊髓 to the muscles to give us the ability to move But spinal cord injuries or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the muscles Tavella says Our system allows disabled people to communicate with external 外部的 world and also to control devices The researchers designed a special cap for the users This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp 头皮 and sends them to a computer The computer interprets translate the signals and commands the motorized wheelchair The wheelchair also has two cameras that identify find or discover objects in its paths They help the computer react to commands from the brain Professor Millan the team leader says scientists keep improving the computer software that interprets brain signals and turns them into simple commands The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled people can be grouped in two categories communication and controlling devices One example is this wheelchair He says his team has set two goals One is testing with real patients so as to prove that this is a technology they can benefit from And the other is
