Whats the most efficient brain–computer interface to play video games?
Posted On: March 29, 2024

I read:.


Technology for connecting paralyzed folks with computers has existed for a while now, according to Bloomberg:.


Neuralink is not the only company working on brain devices that connect with computers. Modern demonstrations of cursor control by using thoughts have taken place in other humans with various types of implants, such as those deployed by the BrainGate consortium of research institutions and hospitals.


However, the Neuralink device contains more electrodes than other devices, suggesting it may have more potential applications in future. The Neuralink technology works without needing a wired connection to external devices.


[.].


“I’m happy for the individual that he’s been able to interface with a computer in a way he wasn’t able to before the implant,” said Kip Allan Ludwig, co-director of the Wisconsin Institute for Translational Neuroengineering. “That’s not a breakthrough compared to what others have shown previously, but it’s certainly a good starting point.”.


This makes me wonder: What's the most efficient brain–computer interface to play video games? By most efficient, I mean allowing players to play the best.


Question from user Franck Dernoncourt at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

I am pretty certain there is currently no publicly available way to command a game without any physical interaction with your body (directly from brain to console).


There has been a few projects, but most are still in their infancy, or for neuralink are said to be far along, but to be frank, its promoted by Elon Musk that is starting to have a reputation of promising the moon and then not delivering anywhere close to what is promised.


So to wrap it up, currently you need to interface normally with your game, or at best with things like the Xbox Accessibility Suite.
