Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are used to create a direct communication pathway between the brain and external devices, enabling people to control technology, restore lost functions, and enhance human-computer interaction. They are applied in various fields, including medicine, accessibility, robotics, communication, and entertainment. BCIs can help individuals with paralysis or severe motor impairments to communicate, control prosthetics, and regain functional independence in daily tasks.
