There have been some interesting EEG related stories lately:
- Neuroprosthetics: the mind is the pilot
- Scientists Closer to Reading Words From Your Brain
- Researchers Working on Continuous Remote Monitoring of Epileptic Patients
I've followed BCI: Brain Computer Interface and EEG work for a long time. There is still a long way to go on the "mind reading" front, but these types of developments are all encouraging.
