Keeping Your Mind On The Game Stephen Fung May 4, 2007 San Jose biosensor and signal processing system company NeuroSky is currently developing a gaming headset able to respond to the brain’s electrical activity.

Similar to the Brain-Computer Interface, this will also open new medical applications for people who are impaired in their movements. In the gaming industry, this may however be a flop, as many kids will not appreciate a “mind tax” on their entertainment. Where’s the fun if you need to be brainy to play a racing game or a shoot’em up after all? Source: Gizmodo Share This With The World!
