Summary
This study introduces electromagnetic brain-computer-metasurfaces (EBCMs) controlled by real-time brainwaves, enabling wireless information transfer between human brains for potential applications in assisting disabled individuals.
Area of Science:
- Metasurface technology
- Neuroscience
- Wireless communication
Background:
- Traditional metasurfaces rely on external power sources like DC or AC voltages.
- Direct brainwave control of electronic devices remains a significant challenge.
Purpose of the Study:
- To introduce a novel electromagnetic brain-computer-metasurface (EBCM).
- To demonstrate remote mind-controlled metasurface (RMCM) functionality using real-time brainwaves.
- To explore wireless information transmission directly between human brains.
Main Methods:
- Real-time collection and processing of human brainwaves.
- Integration of brainwave signals to control metasurface properties.
- Development of a wireless communication protocol for brain-to-brain data transfer via metasurfaces.
Main Results:
- Successful demonstration of metasurface control using only brainwaves.
- Establishment of wireless information transmission capabilities between brains.
- Validation of the EBCM concept for real-time brainwave modulation.
Conclusions:
- The EBCM offers a new paradigm for controlling metasurfaces without conventional power sources.
- This technology presents a promising pathway for brain-computer interfaces and assistive technologies for people with disabilities.

Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic...

High-Level and Low-Level Awareness
371
Controlled processes in human consciousness represent high-alert mental states where individuals deliberately focus their attention on achieving specific goals. Controlled processes can be seen in situations like mastering new technology, where a person might become so absorbed that they ignore surrounding distractions. Such processes involve selective attention, requiring one to concentrate on particular elements of experience while disregarding others. These are governed by executive...

Extrasensory Perception

Extrasensory perception, or ESP, suggests the ability to perceive events beyond the conventional senses of sight, hearing, and touch. Parapsychologists, who research ESP and related psychic phenomena, categorize ESP into three main types: precognition, telepathy, and clairvoyance.
Precognition involves foreseeing future events, such as predicting an accident before it happens. An example of precognition could be someone dreaming about a specific event, like a car crash, which then occurs...
