Dr. Adriane Randolph Brain-Computer Interfaces

In case you haven’t heard, Dr. Adriane Randolph, Director of the BrainLab – Coles College of Business, Kennesaw State University, “is working to discover impactful solutions for brain-computer interfaces by uncovering the underlying characteristics that effect users’ control.”

Paul Harvey of SmartBusiness asked, “But what if technology could bypass disabilities, allowing humans to conquer genetics or disease and enable a return to a normal or improved life?” He got a bit closer to the answer in his interview with Dr. Adriane Randolph. They discussed these and other questions:

• What are brain-computer interfaces?
• What types of brain-computer interfaces are studied?
• Who are ideal candidates for these interfaces?
• What is the biggest challenge of changing thoughts into actions?
• How might brain-computer interfaces cut across business methodologies?

You can read more about the answers to these questions in this 2008 SmartBusiness article.
