Emotiv, the company that has pioneered Electroencephalography (EGG) for the consumer market is working on a new product with more sensors. If you are not familiar with EGG, it is the recording of the brain’s electrical activity via sensors on the scalp.
The technology was initially used to study sleep disorders or diagnose coma conditions. However, the technology can also be applied to basic game controls, and that’s how it initially made its way to the market when I first tried it in 2008. Since then, it has been used to control robots, web sites, and some have even theorized that one day, our thoughts could be hacked.
