Intricate circuitry is a similarity between a human brain and a computer but a brain has much more neuron connections almost 100 billion neurons. The scientists at the THE BRAINGATE used this and the logical processing similarity to place an array of 100 electrodes, each thinner than hair in that part of brain of a paralyzed patient which controls the hand. The patient was asked to imagine moving a computer cursor and pattern of brain activity was noted. It turned out that specific pattern resulted in specific movement.
