How to control a machine with your brain
- hirundo 8y agoThis tech will someday help turn the masses of heads down zombies staring at their phones into heads up zombies staring at their virtual screens, pointing and clicking with their brains. They'll be almost as zoned out as now but their posture will be better.
- jolmg 8y agoI'm hoping for something like Ghost in the Shell, where they can interact with everything and communicate with one another with pure thought. Looking at the characters in the series, it seems super convenient. Though, I sure as hell hope it doesn't become popular to have a point-and-click interface for it like it happened with today's consumer computing for sake of being easier and more intuitive. What a waste of bandwidth! EDIT: Regarding posture, that's the other exciting thought. Today, using a computer for work or otherwise requires sitting still, usually for long periods of time. Sedentary lifestyles are common and tend to wreak havoc in long-term health. It would be so cool to be able to work efficiently while doing other things. I could program while taking a jog or shopping at the supermarket. It's just a lot healthier.
