Thought-Controlled Prosthetics

This is closer to the neuro-scientific side of Artificial Intelligence, but still relevant and fascinating enough to mention here. An article on Science Daily mentions that researchers have managed to simulate on monkeys what is effectively 3D control of an object; Thought-Controlled Prosthetics? With a bit of help from AI to facilitate the limb movement, this could be directly applied to controlling prosthetics without a nervous system. I guess the system developed would class as an artificial nervous system. There's still a long way to go, but here's another step (pardon the pun ;)
