Synopsis

The processes in the formation of conscious brain processes are largely understood up to the level of the microtubules, even if one or the other bitter controversy is fought here. In addition, however, the space of the opaque opens up: the sphere of consciousness that American psychologist Julian Jaynes so aptly describes as "mind space." Will this "mind space", where qualia and subjective experience arise and are experienced, can ever be made accessible by brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) or other technologies? Or does the "neuron-mindspace barrier" represent an insurmountable limit? So the question is: will brain-computer interfaces – almost as "brain-reading devices" – soon enable us to decode the qualia and consciousness of the human being? So is the future of human-computer interaction in the field of brain-computer interfaces? Using vivid explanations and real-world examples, the author describes the different types of BCIs and how they work. He shows how electroencephalographic (EEG) sensors, implantable devices, and other technologies allow thoughts to be converted into actions and even establish communication between brains.
