Abstract :
A $199 headset controls objects via brain waves. It was a typical technology product party-a swank Beverly Hills hotel, loud music, and tiny sausages on sticks. Then partygoers started zooming around in mind-controlled electric carts. Yes. Mind-controlled electric carts.The drivers were wearing NeuroSky MindSet headsets. The devices were launched last July, but they were being introduced at this October party as a prelude to a possible TV game show where contestants might use their minds to ignite or levitate various objects.
