Enter the World Wide Brain, a talk to understand and imagine the future of brain-environment interface.
Gille de Bast, founder of Mentalista, owned the Main Stage of the ICT Spring 2022 on June 30th, before more than 400 people, who all took the leap to attend this immersive keynote: “Enter the World Wide Brain”.
The talk was about the power of the brain and its potential to become a new way of interaction between people and connected objects. We specifically discussed the World Wide Brain, a concept about biologically connecting humans together in a global decentralized network. In this network, everybody is connected with its brain and can control objects capable of understanding what is happening in your brain.To illustrate the power of the Mentalista technology, we shew a demonstration of our real-time brain waves classifier used to train a mental image based on the mental visualization of saying “Hello” to someone.
In this experiment, we asked the participant equipped with a brain-environment interface to think about saying “Hello” to someone and to create a dataset of his brainwaves. We were now ready to predict in real-time what the pattern of his brain waves looks like when he says “Hello” with his mind. When the prediction pourcentage was high, a synthetic voice said “Hello” to the audience.
