It's like a headset, but it has 14 electrode sensers. So, if you think that your player will move forward, he will. If you think he will aim that way. he will.
Really, I think it's amazing. Check it out.

Hmm... I've seen something on this technology previously and it is extremely tough to get any real accuracy from it. I think we are still quite a long ways away from what this is being marketed as actually becoming a real product.

They say it will be releasing next yet... I'm really curious to see how responsive it is to a new user. I'd imagine both the system and the user would have to adapt to the process.

Hub - It's actually around $299 according to the video.

$299!?!, then it's not worth it... You can find regular headphones that cost that much, well badass headphones.

Something of that technology would cost more, something is not right.

Also, if you look at the wheelchair demo, it seems whatever DSP they are using to track and compare signals is extremely inefficient... or their code is... It just does not seem very responsive.

The price tag also makes me a bit nervous about the quality of the equipment they are using.

exactly... technology of that kind would cost a HELL of a lot more.
