EMOTIV PROJECT


So you can control a robot with your mind, and drive a train using your brain, but what about your thoughts controlling a video game? Meet Emotiv’s ‘Project Epoc’ - It’s basically a helmet with electrodes to monitor electromagnetic signals coming from your brain. Then, it interprets those signals to control the video game you're playing.

This system can also move objects based on a gamers thoughts, reflect facial expressions, and respond to the excitement or calm the gamer mentally exerts, the company said. Neat! Yes indeed, but it’s not available to the public yet and there’s no word on a release date. We can expect it to be pricey though.
