Scientists at the V.A. Trapeznikov Institute of Control Sciences of the Russian Academy of Sciences (ICS RAS) have discovered that the human brain generates unique electrical signals that are recorded using an electroencephalograph. This distinctive "brain fingerprint" can be used to identify individuals.
How it Works
When a person looks at an LED, electrical activity begins in the occipital region of their brain. The recorded waves depend on the psychophysiological state of the subject.
Researchers have developed neural network-based models to classify human personality types. They believe this will form the basis of a new biometric security system.
Scope of Application
The results of the ICS RAS scientists' research were used in the creation of a neurointerface that can be used to control a drone. This involves stimulating the alpha and beta rhythms of the brain, which are read by the drone. These rhythms cause the device to move.
The author of the development, Daniyar Volf, stated that he formulated an interesting hypothesis during the work on the neuroheadset. If the electrical waves recorded by the sensors are unique to each person, then they can become biometric markers for their identification.
