Identifying Gifted Students through Analysis of Brain Activity Energy Emission and Nerve Impulse Transmission Speed between Brain Cells

Apparatus for identifying and categorizing people according to educational capability as indicated by detected brain activity, comprising:

• a Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) and associated sensor electrodes, wherein placement of the sensor electrodes at locations on a subject's head suitable for detection of brain electrical activity emanating from a brain region and positioning the sensor electrodes on the subject's head allows the detection of the brain electrical activity at said locations;
• and
• a monitor receiving an output of the BCI,
• wherein monitoring the subject's brain activity with the BCI connected to the sensor electrodes and sensing quantity, speed of transmission, and speed of change measurements of brain electrical activity emanating from the brain region using the BCI allows for monitoring a sensed quantity, a sensed speed of transmission, and a sensed speed of change measurement and using the sensed quantity, sensed speed of transmission, and sensed speed of change measurements to categorize the subject according to gifted and non-gifted categories based on pre-programmed data associated with student models and the quantity of emitted energy as detected by said monitoring the sensed quantity, the sensed speed of transmission, and the sensed speed of change measurements and displaying the monitored sensed quantity, the sensed speed of transmission, and the sensed speed of change measurements as a color spectrum where the sensed quantity, the sensed speed of transmission, and the sensed speed of change measurements are measured based upon a subject performing conventional intelligence tests.
