The group, known as Building 8, currently has four simultaneous projects underway, spanning everything from cameras and augmented reality to science fiction-like brain scanning technology - led by a former John Hopkins neuroscientist who helped develop a mind-controlled prosthetic arm. The group is also planning to jumpstart a fifth unspecified project, and is currently looking for the right person to lead it.
Overseeing everything is Regina ***an, the former DARPA executive who Facebook CEO Zuckerberg poached from Google's advanced projects division last April.
