Hey there
I recently went to a talk on Cybathlon where they also had a couple of interactive demonstrations of the technology and I thought this is really something worth sharing It's crazy what technology can do - I have to admit also a bit scary. I had never heard of it before, but they're hosting the first Cybathlon here in Switzerland in October - in total there are 6 disciplines:

At the presentation day I tried the Brain-Computer Interface Race (BCI) - a lot harder than I thought!

have a good day everyone!

That seems like a pretty cool event jubejube! You tried the BCI eh? Amazing technology but it is scary when you think about it. Won't be long before thoughts can't be kept as just thoughts in your head

They should do this event around the world. I could see it gaining a lot of attention!

Well, maybe if the first edition is successful they'll expand next year - I'll for sure try to go
