A system calibrates a user's brain region (e.g., the primary visual cortex or V1 region) to actual sensory information (e.g., the visual field), and enables imagined sensory information (e.g.; dynamic mental imagery) to be interpreted as computer input. The system includes a configuration engine and an input device control engine. The configuration engine includes a test pattern; a functional information gatherer for presenting the test pattern to a user; a brain-scanning device interface for obtaining functional information from a region in the user's brain that provides a physiological response to the test pattern and that receives feedback corresponding to imagined sensory information; and a mapping engine for using the functional information to map the user's brain region to the test pattern. The input device control engine includes a brain-scanning device interface for obtaining functional information from a brain region that provides a physiological response to actual sensory information and that receives feedback corresponding to imagined sensory information; an interpretation engine for interpreting the feedback; and a computer control engine for using the interpreted feedback as computer input.
