Brain-computer interfaces enable direct human control of computer applications and computerized devices through the force of the mind alone.
Dr. Doron Friedman is a lecturer at the Interdisciplinary Center Herzliya and the Sammy Offer School of Communications. He heads the Advanced Virtuality Lab (AVL) and takes part in several international research projects on virtual reality, brain-computer communication and man-machine interface.
In his lecture, Dr. Friedman will present findings from studies in which he participated over the last ten years, that involve direct mind control of avatars and robots using the interpretation of brainwaves (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), designed to help disabled patients.
In addition, Dr. Friedman will discuss the efforts currently underway to make some of these technologies available outside the lab and outside the medical world, and offer them to the general public as non-medical applications.
