Braingate is an electrode chip which can be implemented in the brain. When it is implemented in brain, the electrical signal exchanged by neurons within the brain. Those signals are sent to the brain and it executes body movement. All the signalling process is handled by special software. The signal sends to the computer and then the computer is controlled by patient.
BRAIN GATE TECHNOLOGY
INTRODUCTION:
Brain-computer interface (BCI) is a fast-growing emergent technology, in which researchers aim to build a direct channel between the human brain and the computer.
It is abbreviated as BCI.
DEFINATION:
Brain Gate Technology is a ‘brain-computer interface’ that uses internal neural signal sensor and external processors to convert neural signals into an output signal under the users own control.
This system that allows a quadriplegic man to control a computer using his Thoughts.
Brain Gate is a brain implant system developed by the bio-tech company “Cyber kinetics” in 2003 in conjunction with the Department of Neuroscience at Brown University.
WORKING PRINCIPLE:
• The Brain computer interface that consist of an Inter neural signal sensor and External Processors.
• When a work is done through any part of body then a potential difference is created in the brain. This potential difference is captured by the Sensor.
• The sensor is implanted on the surface of brain in the motor cortex area that controls our movement.
• The sensor consists of a silicon array about the size of small Aspirin tablet that contain about 100 electrodes each thinner than a human hair that detect brain cell electrical activity.
• Brain electrical activity transmitted via fiber optic to the external processor (call Digitizer) convert neural signals into an output signal under the users own control.
• The computers translate brain activity and create the communication output using custom decoding software.
TYPES 1: Brain Computer interface is of three types based on its features
1-Invasive BCI: Invasive BCIs are implanted directly into the grey matter of the brain during neurosurgery and has the highest quality signals
-provide functionality to paralyzed people.
2-Non Invasive BCI: Non-Invasive BCIs do not involve neurosurgery. They are just like wearable virtual reality devices.
3-Partially Invasive BCI: Partially invasive BCI devices are implanted inside the skull but rest outside the brain rather than within the grey matter.
-gives a patient the ability to move muscle implants and restore partial movement.
Based on the communicative Pathway BCI is classified as follows
One Way BCI: Computers either accept commands from the brain or send signals to it (for example, to restore vision) but not both.
Two Way BCI: Brains and external devices can exchange information in both directions but have yet to be successfully implanted in animals or humans.
APPLICATION:
1. Bionic Eye: Bionic eye is an experimental visual device which will help blind people to see what they want to see.
2. Honda Asimo Control: Honda's Asimo is a robot. Anyone can control its simply by thinking.

The mind-to-movement system that allows a quadriplegic man to control a computer using only his thoughts is a scientific milestone. It was reached, in large part, through the brain gate system. This system has become a boon to the paralyzed. The Brain Gate System is based on Cyber kinetics platform technology to sense, transmit, analyze and apply the language of neurons. The principle of operation behind the Brain Gate System is that with intact brain function, brain signals are generated even though they are not sent to the arms, hands and legs.The signals are interpreted and translated into cursor movements, offering the user an alternate Brain Gate pathway to control a computer with thought,just as individuals who have the ability to move their hands use a mouse. The 'Brain Gate' contains tiny spikes that will extend down about one millimetre into the brain after being implanted beneath the skull,monitoring the activity from a small group of neurons.It will now be possible for a patient with spinal cord injury to produce brain signals that relay the intention of moving the paralyzed limbs,as signals to an implanted sensor,which is then output as electronic impulses. These impulses enable the user to operate mechanical devices with the help of a computer cursor.

Memristors are basically a fourth class of electrical circuit, joining the resistor, the capacitor, and the inductor, that exhibit their unique properties primarily at the nanoscale. Theoretically, Memristors, a concatenation of “memory resistors”, are a type of passive circuit elements that maintain a relationship between the time integrals of current and voltage across
a two terminal element. Thus, a memristors resistance varies according to a devices memristance function, allowing, via tiny read charges, access to a “history” of applied voltage. The material implementation of memristive effects can be determined in part by the presence of hysteresis (an accelerating rate of change as an object moves from one state to another) which, like many other non-linear “anomalies” in contemporary circuit theory, turns out to be less an anomaly than a fundamental property of passive circuitry.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

3. NEED OF BRAIN GATE TECHNOLOGY
• 300,000 Americans are spinal cord injured.
• 52% of spinal cord injured individuals are
considered Partial paralysis and 48% Total
Paralysis
• Approximately 15,000 new injuries occur each
year.
• 82% are male.
• 56% of injuries occur between the ages of 16
and 30
5. The brain-machine interface analyzes
slight changes in the brain's blood
flow and translates brain motion into
electric signals.
6. Brain-Computer Interface
• A brain–computer interface (BCI) is a direct
communication pathway between a brain and
an external device computer interface (BCI).
• It’s also known as direct neural interface or a
brain–machine interface.
• Brain computer interface takes place as a result
of EEG

7. Brain Signals & Electroencephalogram
(EEG)
• EEG is a recording of the electrical activity of the brain directly from
the scalp produced by the firing of neurons within the brain.
• No EEG signal pattern is duplicated for any two distinct actions
How EEG Works ?
• Recordes patterns by placing small metal discs called electrodes on
the scalp in certain positions
• Each electrode is labeled with a letter and a number to indicate its
position.

8. How the Signal is Produced
• EEG machines use differential
amplifiers to produce each
channel or trace of activity.
• The EEG signal itself is in the
waveform so it is required that
an analogue to digital signal
converter be employed to
produce the signal as a series of
numeric values each
representing voltage values of
each channel at a certain time
instance.

10. A TINY CHIP HOLDING 100
MICROSCOPIC ELECTRODES
• The Braingate Neural Interface device consists of a tiny chip
containing 100 microscopic electrodes that is surgically
implanted in the brain's motor cortex. The whole apparatus is
the size of a baby aspirin. The chip can read signals from the
motor cortex, send that information to a computer via
connected wires, and translate it to control the movement of
a computer cursor or a robotic arm. According to Dr. John
Donaghue of Cyberkinetics, there is practically no training
required to use Brain Gate because the signals read by a chip
implanted, for example, in the area of the motor cortex for
arm movement, are the same signals that would be sent to
the real arm.
12. WORKING
• The sensor of the size of a contact lens is implanted in
brain’s MOTOR CORTEX which control hand and arm
movements. A tiny wire connects the chip to a small
pedestal secured in the scull. A cable connects the
pedestal to a computer. The brain's 100bn neurons fire
between 20 and 200 times a second .The sensor
implanted in the brain senses these electrical signals
and passes signals to the computer through the cable.
The computer translates the signals into a
communication output, allowing a person to move a
cursor on a computer screen merely by thinking about
it.
13. Brain Gate Sensor Implantation
and Post-Op Recovery as Planned
• Surgery as planned
• Post-op recovery unremarkable
• Wound healing around pedestal
• complete
Array
on Cortex
Insertion
2 months post implant
21. A boon to the paralyzed
• Mathew-Nagel the first person to use the brain-
computer
• interface to restore functionality lost due to
paralysis…
22. Biggest reward
• On 7th november 2009 toyota launched it’s
wheel chair that works on thought
• It has a reaction time of 123 milliseconds
23. Wachowski brothers' movie trilogy "The Matrix," humans dive into a
virtual world by connecting their brains directly to a computer……
24. CONCLUSION
• The invention of Brain gate is such a
revolution in medical field.
