One professor thought about moving a finger to type on a keyboard to play a computer game he could see.
Across campus, another professor had his hand resting on a keyboard, but was unable to see the computer game.
Using an EEG skullcap set to monitor the left motor cortex of the brain and a transcranial magnetic stimulation coil the first professor's thoughts were transmitted to the second.
The transmitted thoughts were enough to move the hand of the second professor, without his deciding to do so, and play the game.
During a series of four separate tests, they achieved a ninety percent success rate.
