Thought control of robotic arms using the BrainGate system

A trial funded in part by NIH is evaluating an investigational device called the BrainGate neural interface system. This is a type of brain-computer interface (BCI) intended to put robotics and other assistive technology under the brain’s control. By imagining the movement of their own arms, two paralyzed individuals were able to use the BrainGate to make complex reach-and-grasp movements with robotic arms.

    This is truly amazing technology. However, I wonder why are they hardwiring the technology directly into the brain rather? than using? an external device like EPOC head set? ($299 retail) from Emotive.com as developed by Tan Le. This device allows the user to interface with software or machines wirelessly with no surgery required. Can something like EPOC and Brain Gate work together?
