Using your head

摘要

The emotivEpoc headset system made by Emotiv Systems lets you do things with your brainwaves that used to be done with your mouse - think Minority Report. Based on the latest developments in neurotech-nology it picks up electrical activity from the brain, as well as from facial muscles, and translates it into onscreen commands. The headset captures electrical signals when you concentrate, then the computer processes these signals and pairs a screen action with them. The headset uses 16 sensors that lightly touch the head to tune into electric signals naturally produced by the brain and wirelessly converts them to commands picked up by your wireless USB connection to manipulate characters, avatars, and actions in games and even use it to do simple tasks like organize photos.
