Dr. Bin He, Professor of Biomedical Engineering at the University of Minnesota, conducted an experiment in which remote controlled robots were piloted through human EEG. When participants in the study imagined different motor movements their EEG pattern directed the movements of the robots. Dr. He envisions that this technology will someday be used by people with disabilities to regain functioning by using EEG to control artificial limbs and other devices.

When listening to music or learning a new language, auditory perceptual learning occurs: a process in which your recognition of specific sounds improves, making you more efficient in processing and interpreting them. Neuroscientist Alex Brandmeyer shows that auditory perceptual learning can be facilitated using neurofeedback, helping to focus on the sound differences that really matter.
