The gadget world has lots of great things for us and even aim to give us magic. As we have seen that the control glove simply brings some magic to our fingertips. Here is another one, which has a cool name, Brainball, it gives your brain control power over your game. Brainball is the result of latest development in neuro-technology, by Emotiv’s Project Epoc. It is a controller that straps to your head, lets you interface with your game console and also PCs.
Brainball has sensors to tune into your brain signal for detecting your thoughts, feelings and expression. If you’re playing a Wii Kung Fu game, make sure you present fully your Kung Fu action and shout the “hu ha” along with it! The Brainball connects wirelessly with all game platforms from consoles to PCs. It’d be great that this headset to be further developed into controlling our PC and some other gadgets, so I could just use my thoughts to post at TechChee, without the hassle of typing!
