Hunter's comment

This is an innovation bught to life by IBM . this let's people with severe neurological conditions such as stroke and spinal cord injury to be able to easily control prosthetic with their mind with the use of there brain waves and some AI.

Very useful invention of the time but Does this technology need the needs of the patients who are using it and it don.t cause any side effect on them ?

Best hunt of the day keep hunting

Thank you for posting to @Steemhunt. However, I cannot approve your hunt.
Reason:

5. Quality of the Post

Steemhunt is a “product hunting” site, not a writing curation site. We have a certain format that all hunters should follow when posting a product in order to make a fair/effective ranking chart. Please follow the directions below:

5-1. The field “name of product” should ONLY contain the official name of the product. Please do not include special characters such as trademark or copyright symbols in that field.
5-2. The screenshot images should ONLY be of the product itself. Please do not share descriptive images from any sites other than that of the product (e.g. App Store download page).
5-3. Do not duplicate the product name or use any non-product-specific words in the field “short description.”
5-4. Do not attach non-related screenshot images or videos.
5-5. Do not use low quality product images.
5-6. Do not share any scams, highly suspicious cryptocurrency/fin-tech, illegal products, or any type of weaponry.
5-7. Do not share porn or anything under the #nsfw category.

6. No Duplication Allowed

Steemhunt does not allow the same product to be posted twice. The website automatically checks the URL, but it is still your responsibility to check that the product has not been posted previously. If your product has already been featured from the same brand/maker, the duplication is allowed only when the product is a newer model (V2) or has been majorly updated from the original one.

Ah, the force is strong with this one! Kool tech. for sure being a product that helps those in need. I commend the makers who've taken it to another level! Bravo!

This is definitely a great first step towards robust, low-cost, low-power brain-machine interfaces for controlling artificial limbs through the power of thought. I am sure, this will bring revolution to put another life to those who have been paralyzed for some reason, and I hope, IBM will take it to next level, to make it affordable for all those who need it most. Great hunt for humanity.

Hmmm. This reminds me of a phenomenon I've always tried to write on, mind control. I really need to explore how this works

This is great tech, and really beneficial for those who need it most - like those described in the description, above (stroke & spinal injury victims). And as the tech matures, more possibilities open up, too.

But for me, what is just as exciting is where this tech is heading for everybody. To be able to control things with your brain is the ultimate interface and will open up unlimited possibilities in so many areas - many of which we haven't even thought of.

Let's take one subject, close to most people's heart's on Steemhunt - tech, computing & blogging.

How easy will it be to create a post when all you need to do is think, "blog post" and mentally dictate what you'd like to see. Then, read it back and think of edits you'd like to make. And post. Totally mental-powered - no keyboard required.

I know I'm off on a tangent, and I do love the tech in its current state, but I'm more excited about where it's heading.

Great hunt :)

This will help our brain do unimaginable things.
