In this assignment, you are to prepare a formal report/essay describing the
technology involved in one of the above. It will be necessary to focus on one
specific example within your chosen broader area. For example, you might focus

headsets can assist paraplegics control computer cursors with their brain.
Although it is a formal report, you may include illustrations. Make sure your
sources are as up to date as possible. You can use recent examples from media.
