About this talk

Tan Le presents the EPOC headset; a device that makes it possible for specially designed computer applications to be controlled and influenced by the user's mind and facial expressions. Here, Le discusses the implementations of the technology, her fascination with the human brain, and why challenges are often opportunities in disguise.

Hello Tan Le

I am not in Australia, I am from California, USA. I am so proud what you've done, an important contribution of technology not only for Australia but for the whole world. Some of my friends, VNmeses and Americans, and people of the VNmese community here, said that if you did your speech shorter, and talked lesser about your mom, and yourself and then your speech was wonderful instead. We respect the humility, and we love the loyalty.

Being a Vietnamese, I'm totally so proud of what you have done. Why wouldn't it be available in VN?

Good technology for por ejemplo blind people,schisofreny etc., but in practical world it"s nothing but complicating easy world=junk.

It desturbes the EM connections of human with earth, so put on your shoes

take a walk and try to forget that you live in a f.up world

Great speech and technology. It is Ok to say about her family background where she has learned and inspired from. What country has generously provided her opportunity. From there, that has led to her success.
