Computer chip maker Intel wants to implant a brain-sensing chip directly into the brains of its customers to allow them to operate computers and other devices without moving a muscle.
Intel believes its customers would be willing to have a chip implanted in their brains so they could operate computers without the need for a keyboard or mouse using thoughts alone. The implant could also be used to operate devices such as cell phones, TVs and DVDs.
The chip is being developed at Intel’s laboratory in Pittsburgh, USA. It would sense brain activity using technology based on FMRI (Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging). The brain sensing chips are not yet available, but Intel research scientist Dean Pomerleau thinks they are close.’

Hi Rob,
Not that my brain couldn’t use some help to work better but I would still be very reluctant to let somebody mess around with it!
You’ve got a great blog going, really. I’ requesting your Twitter product it sounds very interesting.
Cheers,
Jose Perez (fellow Alex Jeffreys student)
Hi Jose
I too am not at all keen on having a chip implanted in my brain. If it works anything like my laptop, I’ll need rebooting 3 times a day.
Hope you find the Twitter Traffic Swarm as useful as I did.
Rob
Very nice, I really enjoyed it. Is there somewhere I can see more about it?
Geez, everytime I see blogs this good I just want mine to be there already!
Great work.
