Title:
Bionic apparatus for controlling television games
Abstract:
An apparatus for controlling electrically operated television games utilizing minute electric signals generated by the firing of neuron impulses in a selected portion of the human body. The minute electric impulses generated by the firing of neurons in the nerve tissue of the human body when a deliberate muscular response is demanded by the human brain are detected by electrodes contacting the exterior skin of the human body in the vicinity of a muscle, amplified, filtered or extraneous signals, suitably conditioned and utilized to control a selected display on a video display screen in response to the voluntarily generated neuron-firing electrical signals.
