100 Years of EEG: Unleashing the Brain's Secrets and Motor of Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) Research

Electroencephalography (EEG) has come a long way since its discovery, marking over a hundred years of groundbreaking progress. Hans Berger, the scientist behind this invention, revolutionized the study of brain activity by developing a non-invasive way to measure the brain's electrical currents. His work laid the foundation for modern neuroscience, enabling advancements in both clinical applications and cutting-edge technologies like brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). In this small flashlight on its history, I will delve into the history of EEG, its development from a tool of clinical diagnosis to an established and highly sophisticated research tool, culminating in its integration into brain-computer interface (BCI) technology and its relation to consciousness.
