Neural interfacing

Neural interfacing is connecting to and interacting with devices through neural system. So you can browse and order that elite eggplant WITH THE POWER OF YOUR MIND! Neural input receivers are the simplest of neural interfaces. They come in form of headset, temple trodes, or headband. They can pick up basic commands from user's brain, such as move cursor, choose among several menu options. This is the input-only option; feedback from the device doesn't go back to the brain.
Direct neural interface provides two way interface. Data displays and sensory input are transmitted directly to the brain. Downside: it opens the user's nervous system to intrusion. SO: firewalls, quality of products you use, access controls are important.
Neural interfacing requires an implant. The virgins back at corpo labs are busy developing tech which will allow interfacing via the helmet (nano needles puncturing directly into the brain, no implant needed), but it is not good enough for mass market yet. Most people are happy using interface implants. The job the the NI implant is simple: pick up the electronic impulses from the device and translate them into the electrochemical signals in the brain, and vice versa. Implants come in two varieties:

• Neural jack - a socket implanted in the body, usually the back of the neck, base of the spine, skull, wrist
• wireless - connect to the wireless receivers on the devices cable-free; the device has to have a wireless receiver and be open for connections

Brainlocks - devices with neural interfaces respond only to specific brainwave pattern, just like biometric locks with fingerprints.
Neural interfaces are also used to connect to total virtual reality (VR).
