An implanted device allows a man to translate his brain signals into written words. A man who developed paralysis and lost his ability to speak following a stroke can now communicate using a system that translates his brain's electrical signals into individual letters, allowing him to craft whole words and sentences in real time.

To use the device, which receives signals from electrodes implanted in his brain, the man silently attempts to say code words that stand in for the 26 letters of the alphabet, according to a new report, published Tuesday (Nov. 8) in the journal Nature Communications (opens in new tab). These code words come from the NATO phonetic alphabet, in which "alpha" stands for the letter A, "bravo" for B and so on.

Is this the beginning efforts to try to control mankind? Is this the plan...to create an army of cyborgs being controlled by a big company being ultimately controlled by the government? If you have an army of super cyborg humans, it's easy to control the rest of the normal population.
