Mind Controlled game controller

[kingmath666]

Does it work with stupid persons? Because if it don't I won't be able to play XD

[TheArkaydian]

So urm... when is this going on sale?

[0squishymonster0]

wow bet you ccould pewn some newbz wiff dat

[Xadreos]

Wouldn't it be cool if you could combine this technology with kinect? Then you could think something and the game would react, or you could perform an action to reinforce what you want the character to do. I think it adds an extra layer to the full immersion experience. =P

[WeLiveForParkour]

@Xadreos but what if you wanna do something like a frontflip haha

[ZombieCATy]

my brain will burned out if i use the headset for hours! However its an amazing technology hope to see it in the market soooooon



[echo1v]

what would happen if I played so much I would develop telekinetic powers? would I be able to sue someone? i don't want to be an x-man

[innerJAG]

Crysis FTW!

[just2duh]

Must say this would be much more interesting than what natal and move are doing, too bad all the money for both of those things were wasted and not spent on something like this that is actually different!

[OlgerJan]

i really hope im playing games like this within 20 years

The idea for the arrows and to use mind control in humanoid robotics (Honda did copy my idea for Asimo) , or to move the cursor of the mouse in the computer were mine... now watch this... if you use the squared screen with augmented reality in your cell phone or eye glasses... then you will be able to do more... I have even more ideas to implement... but this is for later... you can watch my website with the most complete Humanoid Robot list in the World in the mean time...

[AmrasFelagund]

Oh my God... My Psychology teacher in high school brought in one of these once! I even used it to play a game! I totally forgot until now!

[blackhat2005]

Imagine having a goggle screen and play a First Person Shooter online. EPIC

[Zonehacks]

well we all just have to wait for project natal from microsoft

[AdamDeutsch86]

Like they say! Technology is the future!!!!!!!!

[wowhelpme1]

where can i buy this???? what's the name of this thingy?

[Yndostrui]

not yet...

he's quite right: you don't need a controller without a game to control...

I think I am going to buy it together with the SDK, as soon as I can get it from here (germany).

So I am able to use it, instead of just having it =O

[isaaccade]

COMEPLETLY worth the price

[D33Lux]

This is mind blowing! Humanity is moving towards a future of limitless & unbelievable levels of logic.

[Henkboom1612]

I knew it had to be Japanese! They're crazy to think up something like this.

[salazar442]

that sucks it would suck online 300$ wow really that must suck

[ChrisoneillART]

Sweet, Neuro Sky and Sega are already coming together, I wonder what game company will partner with Emotiv Systems

[fleebus090]

sony will wait 15 more years for the technology to improve, and then jump on it when it seems to be perfected enough. until then, its goin nowhere. someone big needs to pick it up.

[mistertitanic]

wow, only 300$? I would think it would be like 1,500$!!

[Anoniempjea]

Me 2 xd i thougt that's gonna cost really much.

[ChrisLarsden]

They mispelled Emotiv at 0:52... LOL Why wouldn't the producers "trust" the headset? It's pretty passive. These guys have no concept of technology, why are they hosting this show? $300 expensive????? Idiots

[kytech25]

It may be very early in this type of field to say it will or will not catch on, personally i hope it does not as a main controller though, I rather have it help me with less important effects options or action in the game such in multiple mmorpgs instead of having so many hot buttons maybe have a couple functions set to the head set or maybe some of the fun non necessary commands such as dance, greet, and wave. Later on, it may get more sensitive and will cut down on carpal tunnel

[thisissopro]

i'd prefer a gun controller for crysis .. thinking isnt fun.. it can be used for other applications tho if its fast and accurate (which isnt!)

[mechwarriorbob]

eh it seems like it would take to long; games are much more about instinctive reaction not thinking of it, it just takes too long

[DaMiteeSaskwach]

yeah, but can it make crab cakes? no, it cannot. FUCK THIS SHIT.

[kzalldaz]

crab cakes! LOL. Thumbs up for you.

[fucksatanism]

The atari of virtual reality.

Why is the audio on this video 100x lower than anything else on youtube?  I couldn't even hear most of it at max volume on my 7.2 audio system..

[cplai]

I know the volume is low compared to other clips. Also try the little speaker volume icon below the playback window. I can hear everything quite clearly at max volume.

The lineout from the DVR to the computer has weak signal. The low record level was caused by hardware problem. Perhaps the cable is too long or something. In more recent postings, I have tried to boost the audio volume using the clip editing software, but it could only increase 50% at best.

[unknwn55]

Of course that is at max.. I can hear it just wondering why it was so low. Thanks for posting this though, very interesting!

[Zake11M]

300 is not expensive, 2 month of student grant from school and i can buy this game. This game is going to be so awesome.

[darkcow229]

im gunna have work a long time 2 get 300$ but its worth it

[maggihunter]

you kidding right?... 300 ? long lol

[LyIVch]

300$ is nothing if you think about it

[kitsunestrife]

@LyIVch nice pun :)

[Lew847]

TechNow's Scott McGrew was afraid to try it (my translation), so they had "this guy" try it. Where is Scott's sense of adventure? That's the kind of device that you're not going to have a feel for until you try it. It must feel like having a whole new abilibty. I hope this technology survives and I agree with FrozenProk that $300 is pretty cheap.

[cplai]

I have added something new to the description that you may be interested. Click "more info" on the right.

[TheLovesoul1]

@cplai what do you think of the device i think is cool.

[FrozenProk]

"expensive" !?!?!? i think not my friend... this is pretty cheap imo

[2gig]

TechNow rocks.
