With the thinking mind to manipulate objects in the sci-fi blockbuster such scenes appear will also appear in real life, a headset device Emotiv Insight compilation brain waves through the body to control intelligent devices, such as handling wheelchairs, driving a car.
Emotiv founder Tan Le three years ago at TED has done a speech demonstrated by analyzing a person's brain waves issue operating system commands, the user's head wearing a brain wave receiving device, the process by imagining virtual 3D objects on the screen under the control of the user's location has moved.
