THINK IT AND IT WILL HAPPEN
An Aussie company is gearing up to release a computer headset that allows people to control video games using only the power of their minds.
In short, this cool little device features 16 sensors that measure electrical impulses from the brain, enabling machines to register facial expressions, emotions and even cognitive thoughts by visualising them.
Players will be able to just think about performing actions, such as lifting or pushing objects or making them disappear, and have the game act accordingly without the need to push any keys or buttons.
While the headset will work in a very limited sense with existing titles, Emotiv CEO and co-founder Nam Do said the major game developers and publishers were designing a number of their upcoming titles to take full advantage of the technology.
