Instead of a mouse - the brain!
The American company NeuroSky is developing a portable sensor that receives and recognizes brain pulses - MindSet.
This device works on the basis of a patented technology that allows you to receive electrical waves produced by brain activity and eye movements, and translate the received information into binary code. MindSet is a module in the form of headphones with a brain activity sensor, worn on the head.

The main purpose of the NeuroSky product is, of course, games. Because This device is able to "understand" the human nerve states, such as fear, tension, calm - the realism of games should reach a new level. For example, in popular now "horror films" (FEAR, Penumbra) it will become much more difficult to go through scary or exciting moments. But such a state of affairs can lead to the opposite effect, because the majority of users like to use superpowers in games, and the influence of a nervous state can deprive a player of these abilities. The cursor is proposed to control eye movements, and the degree of impact on objects varies with the help of concentration.
Nevertheless, the NeuroSky sensor may soon be released on a wide sale just in the “entertainment” market and will cost about $ 20. But the company does not name the exact dates. Also, the manufacturer assumes that the more developed and reliable versions of MindSet can be used in the future almost everywhere - from space programs to vehicle control.
