Typing 100 Words in a Smartphone using just Your Mind

As I published during June 2017, Facebook aims to allow people to type 100 words per minute with just your mind, 5X faster than typing on a smartphone. Knowing the technological evolution that we are living, in your opinion, how many years Facebook will need to create this BCI solution? The possible answers are: 2 years, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years or never. Share your opinion pressing here.

Typing-by-Brain Facebook Project

First it was Elon Musk, now Facebook. Suddenly, all the big Silicon Valley players want to get into brain tech (IEEE Spectrum). Mark Zuckerberg added his perspective on the news in a post soon after the announcement, presenting the brain-typing project as a natural evolution of Facebook’s mission to help people share their interior worlds. If they like sharing comments, photos, and videos, why not directly share their thoughts too?

In my opinion, we must invest in this BCI solution for several years to achieve a fluid and natural writing resorting solely to the identification of brain electrical impulses through non-invasive equipment.
