A while back I was privileged to meet one of the key suppliers to the development of this new technology innovation – a headset that reads your thoughts and allows you to control objects in a digital world.
When I first heard about Emotiv, they were still developing the prototype. They already developed the technology and is in the process of selecting the best materials to use for mass production. They were down to the last issue of selecting the best material that is firm, flexible and can comfortably be placed on your head. Its gone a long way since – the website is way better than the first version I saw and it has more information about the products. Absolute coolness!
Emotiv Systems, headquartered in San Francisco, California, was founded in 2003 by four award-winning scientists and executives: internationally recognized neuroscientist Professor Allan Snyder, chip-design pioneer Neil Weste, and technology entrepreneurs Tan Le and Nam Do.
These founders all shared the same inspiring vision: to introduce the immediacy of thought to the human-machine dialogue. Together they have developed a technology that utterly transforms the way we interact with computers.
While Emotiv is currently focusing on the electronic gaming industry, the applications for the Emotiv EPOC™ technology and interface span an amazing variety of potential industries — interactive television, accessibility design, market research, medicine, even security. Plans for introducing Emotiv into these and other broad realms are already in the works.
It’s an ambitious plan, and to back it up, Emotiv has assembled an outstanding group of people for its Board, Advisors, and Staff.

I highly recommend that you check out their product videos and demos – this will blow your mind!
Just imagine the future implementation of this technology. I’m sure that once they open up their doors and share the technology to complimentary product developers – this will skyrocket!
AND check this out – it only costs $299. For this breakthrough technology – its a steal!
I can’t wait to get my hands on one. Even if its just bundled with a simple game or application at first – I just want to try it out and I’m pretty sure that development will be a breeze for future suppliers of games or applications. Besides, simply put – its just replacing your mouse, keyboard or game pad – it might even just add to the experience.
