San Antonio: You need a remote to control a drone, right? Wrong! Researchers at the San University of Texas at San Antonio are working a system where the drone can by driven by the power of thought, according to a report in mysantanio.com
The goal is to create a process for a human to control the movements of groups of drones with only thought, said Daniel Pack, chairman of UTSA’s electrical and computer engineering department.
The research is funded in part by the US department of defence. People may have different brain waves for the same command, so researchers have to “minimise the differences and maximise the similarities” between brain waves and come up with ways to interpret those waves into commands.
