A brain–computer interface (BCI) is a system that measures activity of the central nervous system (CNS) and converts it into artificial output that replaces, restores, enhances, supplements, or improves natural CNS output, and thereby changes the ongoing interactions between the CNS and its external or internal environment.

Brain computer interfaces (BCIs) give their users communication and control channels that do not depend on peripheral nerves and muscles. The user’s intent is decoded from electrophysiological or other measures of brain activity. This brain activity is recorded noninvasively by electrodes on the scalp or invasively by electrodes placed on the brain surface or within the brain.

Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) acquire brain signals, analyze them, and translate them into commands that are relayed to output devices that carry out desired actions.

Until recently, the dream of being able to control one's environment through thoughts had been in the realm of science fiction. However, the advance of technology has brought a new reality: Today, humans can use the electrical signals from brain activity to interact with, influence, or change their environments.

The emerging field of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology may allow individuals unable to speak and/or use their limbs to once again communicate or operate assistive devices for walking and manipulating objects.
