One of the most prominent applications in the field of brain-computer interfaces is the development of artificial limbs such as hands or legs created by the merge between Cybernics and AI. This fusion will establish the scientific and technological basis for human augmentation, extending human capability beyond innate, physiological levels, cognitively, emotionally and physically. This session aims to deliver future applications of brain-computer interfaces as well as bring discussion among students about the possibilities of human augmentation.
