I am constantly thinking; thinking about times past, when I read Renaissance texts, mainly in Latin, and sometimes Roman texts - although these interest me less ; thinking about the future,as I look over the scientific abstracts every day.
One piece of news caught my eye recently,and set me thinking - the invention of a water compatible flexible circuit,capable of information processing. The press release from begins like this; ScienceDaily (July 14, 2011) — Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a memory device that is soft and functions well in wet environments -- opening the door to a new generation of biocompatible electronic devices.
What if when?
Now, only a small leap is required, to think, what would be needed to interface with the human brain? At present, cumbersome glass electrodes are used, with wires having to traverse the blood-brain barrier. with biocompatible implanted wifi connection, that would interface under the skin, behind the blood-brain barrier,the implant would only need to be very small, as space is at a premium in the human brain - but it would not need to do much - only link to a wifi relay booster that would possibly have more power, located elsewhere in the body, where there is more room to play around with.
New energy harvesting technology would make the system self powering.
This in turn,would connect to the internet, giving the mind a direct connection to external data.
