The cortical mouse: a piece of forgotten history in noninvasive brain&#8211;computer interfaces.
Early research on brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) was fueled by the study of event-related potentials (ERPs) by Farwell and Donchin, who are rightly credited for laying important groundwork for the BCI field. However, many other researchers have made substantial contributions that have escaped the radar screen of the current BCI community. For example, in the late 1980s, I worked with a brilliant multidisciplinary research group in electrical engineering at the University of Florida, Gainesville, headed by Dr. Donald Childers. Childers should be well known to long-time members of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society since he was the editor-in-chief of IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering in the 1970s and the recipient of one of the most prestigious society awards, the William J. Morlock Award, in 1973.
