Mindflex by Mattel
A number of different companies are launching Cognitive control devices this year. They vary in fidelity but some will be very inexpensive to use. Mind control in architecture is a largely unexplored area and will lead to tons of new insights. Mindflex has the gamer don a lightweight headset and then move a foam ball using just brainwave activity. You concentrate on raising and lowering the ball and it just happens. What makes this so unique is that it’s a game, and a great use of technology in its own right. It’s sort of mobile tech in a way; you do move the ball around with your mind.
Here is a video with a user controlling a car using a different headset.
