Brain-Computer Internet Experimental Network BrainMesh Launches in Beijing: Six Volunteers Complete Collaborative Puzzle via Brain Signals
Tsinghua University's BCI Lab launched the BrainMesh experimental network, where six volunteers completed a collaborative puzzle task using non-invasive brain-computer interface devices connected via brain signals.
On August 14, 2028, Tsinghua University's Brain-Computer Interface Lab announced the launch of the BrainMesh experimental network. This local area network connects multiple users' BCI devices, allowing participants to collaborate directly through brain signals.
In the first public demonstration, six volunteers wearing EEG brain caps were asked to collaboratively complete a 1,000-piece puzzle. Each volunteer sent commands by "imagining" specific colors or shapes, and the system translated these brain signals into puzzle piece movement operations.
Results showed that six-person brain-signal collaboration completed the puzzle at approximately 35% the speed of the same number of people doing manual assembly — while not efficient, this represents the first time humans have conducted many-to-many collaboration through pure brain signals.
Lab director Professor Gao Xiaorong said BrainMesh's significance lies in validating the concept of "brain-to-brain communication." He said: "We're not trying to replace keyboards and mice with brain signals. We're exploring an entirely new communication modality — directly from brain to brain."
