Researchers at the National Center for Scientific Research in France and the Japanese National Institute of Technology and Advanced Industrial Science at its Joint Robotics Laboratory (CNRS-AIST JRL) have been developing an EEG-controlled interface for a virtual avatar or physical robot. The goal is to train someday severely paralyzed people to operate a robot with their minds so it can bring things from home and maybe even clean the parts of the house.
The system is based on an artificial intelligence that understands the intentions of the user, so that the robot does not need to be micro-managed to perform simple tasks such as walking to the end of the corridor or lift a cup. Once the user focuses on a target, the robot knows what to do with it.
