Computer Human Interface
Welcome to Computer Human Interface. A human computer interface, sometimes called a direct neural interface or a brain–machine interface, is a direct communication pathway between a brain and an external device. Human computer interfaces are often aimed at assisting, augmenting or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions. The playful side of computer human interfaces are noted in today’s most advanced video game systems. More important applications are in the biological health realm.

The human computer interface field has blossomed recently, mostly toward neuroprosthetics applications that aim at restoring damaged hearing, sight and movement. Thanks to the remarkable cortical plasticity of the brain, signals from implanted prostheses can, after adaptation, be handled by the brain like natural sensor or effector channels. Following years of animal experimentation, the first neuroprosthetic devices implanted in humans appeared in the mid-nineties.
