legitreviews.com — OCZ technology has been showing off the Neural Impulse Actuator over at CeBIT this past week and the device is worth a look. The actuator uses three neural sensors that are resting on the forehead of the user to create unique commands based on the specific permutation of brain, eye and facial muscle activity. Freaked out yet?

They must have searched for a long time to find a model who actually has some neural activity.

ooo I dunno. I don't often play games, in fact hardly ever. But I'd still pay $300 for one.

Think of it this way, technology is moving to be more fluent with a human. In the beginning technology is clumsy and difficult, in the future technology will be transparent to the way we live and require a very shallow learning curve.

Erm, is it me or is this huge? It only has five hundred diggs.

This is amazing! Now all I have to do is blink my left eye to go left, blink my right eye to go right, drop my jaw to duck, and scrunch my nose to jump!Technology is absolutely amazing!

Does anyone remember some sort of "Brainwave controller" from about 10 years ago? I remember seeing it on sale at an electronics store a while back.Supposedly you were supposed to hook this sensor up to your finger and play what looked like pong... using your brain.Anyone know what I'm talking about? I'm kind of curious myself.

you guys are expecting it to control fast paced games with thought alone? that's still years and years away I'm pretty sure - this reads alpha beta theta delta waves just like every other commercially available EEG-PC box.. can't those levels be read just as easily from the frontal lobe as anywhere else? this product is not for doing serious brain research - it probably can't give you a view of anything going on in the brain itself besides the wave metering.. i don't know how difficult it is to alter these levels intentionally or with what dexterity they can me moved - but i think anything beyond that requires a functioning understanding of exactly how the brain processes any given thought.. as far as i know that requires a lot more scientific study.. i am going to buy it though! at $300 i would consider it even if it just did the wave metering..

The sensors are right along the muscles that control eyebrow movements, which is WAY bigger than the minute EEG, so all they're picking up is a combination of EMG (muscles) and EOG (eye movements). That is unlike other similar devices, because it does a good job.Thanks,<a class="user" href="http://www.onlineflashgames.org">http://www.onlineflashgames.org</a><a class="user" href="http://www.bid-directory.net">http://www.bid-directory.net</a>

It is interesting how a child do thing and his mother didn t tell him not to play. The children must do something no playing games from <a class="user" href="http://www.auto-tip.ro" rel="nofollow">http://www.auto-tip.ro</a>
