The Human-Brain interface is a hot area of research right now. The obvious application is helping those who are living with problems that restrict physical movement, like ALS. But there are also applications for everyone in things like controlling video games. Both are areas of interest for Kay Igwe, a graduate Electrical Engineering student at Columbia University. Her "Control iT" project is using Steady State Visually Evoked Potential (SSEVP) instead of the traditional EEG to control a game with your mind. SSEVP needs further development, but could prove more reliable than EEG. Kay explains the concept, hardware, and development plan she is using in her research during this talk which she presented at the 2015 Hackaday SuperConference.
