United States researchers have taken a step towards telepathic communication from people to robot by developing a mind-reading device that allows humans to correct a machine instantly with nothing more than brainwaves.

The prototype brain-computer interface developed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) enables a human observer to transmit an immediate error message to a robot, telling it to fix a mistake when it does something wrong.

Technology that allows humans to interact with robots intuitively through their thoughts could have a range of industrial and medical applications, from robotic limbs to self-driving vehicles.
