"MIT Student Develops Mind-Controlled Internet Search Device"

An MIT student has developed a device called AlterEgo that allows users to communicate with technology using their minds, enabling them to search the internet, solve math equations, and answer questions without speaking or typing. The device records signals when the user hears or thinks of a word and transmits the information to machines, which then use the internet to find the answer and feed it back to the user via skull vibrations. The device aims to support those with speech disorders and has the potential to seamlessly integrate humans and computers, augmenting cognition and abilities.
