Cognitive Mode: Intuition and Analysis

Abstract

A Brain-Controlled Interface (BCI) is a device that monitors and captures cerebrum transmissions of a subject who has the intent to initiate the movement of a bodily member. BCIs serve the purpose of restoring communication between the cerebrum and bodily member(s) that are immobilized. BCIs function by recording the electrical activity in the cerebrum via the scalp (electroencephalography), surface of the cerebrum or within the cerebral cortex (grey matter). These brain signals are transmitted to command signals that drive prosthetic limbs and or computer displays. This literature review is a meta analysis that serves the purpose of researching the neuroscience and psychology of cognitive decision-making, specifically intuition and analysis, and which parts of the cerebrum that controls these functions.
