Genius John Hall and rsc fans will say, this is "schizophrenic paranoia"
because some stranger who is actually a CIA NSA MI6 MI5 ASIS ASIO
psychopath SAID SO.

Researchers Develop Wireless Networks That Allow Brain Circuits to Be
Controlled Remotely Through the Internet

A new study shows that researchers can remotely control the brain
circuits of numerous animals simultaneously and independently through
the internet. The scientists believe this newly developed technology can
speed up brain research and various neuroscience studies to uncover
basic brain functions as well as the underpinnings of various
neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders.

A multidisciplinary team of researchers at KAIST, Washington University
in St. Louis, and the University of Colorado, Boulder, created a
wireless ecosystem with its own wireless implantable devices and
Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure to enable high-throughput
neuroscience experiments over the internet. This innovative technology
could enable scientists to manipulate the brains of animals from
anywhere around the world.

The study was published in the journal Nature Biomedical Engineering on
November 25.

“This novel technology is highly versatile and adaptive. It can remotely
control numerous neural implants and laboratory tools in real-time or in
a scheduled way without direct human interactions,” said Professor
Jae-Woong Jeong of the School of Electrical Engineering at KAIST and a
senior author of the study. “These wireless neural devices and equipment
integrated with IoT technology have enormous potential for science and
medicine.”

The wireless ecosystem only requires a mini-computer that can be
purchased for under $45, which connects to the internet and communicates
with wireless multifunctional brain probes or other types of
conventional laboratory equipment using IoT control modules. By
optimally integrating the versatility and modular construction of both
unique IoT hardware and software within a single ecosystem, this
wireless technology offers new applications that have not been
demonstrated before by a single standalone technology. This includes,
but is not limited to minimalistic hardware, global remote access,
selective and scheduled experiments, customizable automation, and
high-throughput scalability.

“As long as researchers have internet access, they are able to trigger,
customize, stop, validate, and store the outcomes of large experiments
at any time and from anywhere in the world. They can remotely perform
large-scale neuroscience experiments in animals deployed in multiple
countries,” said one of the lead authors, Dr. Raza Qazi, a researcher
with KAIST and the University of Colorado, Boulder. “The low cost of
this system allows it to be easily adopted and can further fuel
innovation across many laboratories,” Dr. Qazi added.

One of the significant advantages of this IoT neurotechnology is its
ability to be mass deployed across the globe due to its minimalistic
hardware, low setup cost, ease of use, and customizable versatility.
Scientists across the world can quickly implement this technology within
their existing laboratories with minimal budget concerns to achieve
globally remote access, scalable experimental automation, or both, thus
potentially reducing the time needed to
