Claim 6:
7. A system for affecting living neural tissue comprising:
at least one photonic read modality adapted to receive photons from living neural tissue and generating a signal representing the released photons, wherein the at least one photonic read modality comprises at least one read modality neural interface adapted to be implanted in the living neural tissue;
at least one photonic write modality adapted to deliver photons to the living neural tissue to effect alterations to the living tissue based on at least one computed signal, wherein the at least one photonic write modality comprises at least one write modality neural interface adapted to be implanted in the living neural tissue;
wherein the at least one photonic read modality and the at least one photonic write modality comprise at least one optic fiber coated with single wall carbon nanotubes; and
computing circuitry comprising a processor, memory accessible by the processor, and computer program instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to compute the at least one signal.
