Topic: Technology 3:57 am EDT, Apr 15, 2004

] BOSTON (AP) - For years, futurists have dreamed of
] machines that can read minds, then act on instructions as
] they are thought. Now, human trials are set to begin on a
] brain-computer interface involving implants.
]
] Cyberkinetics Inc. of Foxboro, Mass., has received Food
] and Drug Administration approval to begin a clinical
] trial in which four-square-millimeter chips will be
] placed beneath the skulls of paralyzed patients.
]
] If successful, the chips could allow patients to command
] a computer to act - merely by thinking about the
] instructions they wish to send.
