Why Many Cells Are Better Than One: Limited Decision-Making 
Ability of Individual Cells Is Bolstered in Masses

Input to the brain can come though the existing sensory system,
bypassing the senses and go directly to the region of the brain 
where the senses are processed or you can bypass those routes 
and go to regions of the brain or nerves not normally used for 
senses.

New external sense(s) and new input location(s) along with
external pre-processing might provide a series of gradual minor
enhancements to grow interest and grow the market for more
advanced systems.

The first enhancements could be as simple as an application on
a smart phone relayed wirelessly to an implant of some kind.
Endless possibilities exist to send signals to the smart phone.

I have heard that casinos are having to watch ever more clever
means of bringing in electronics to beat certain games.  Bringing
enhanced abilities to everyday life should prove more interesting.
I particularly like the idea of additional senses being readily
available.
