The University of Warwick reports the next generation of Christmas presents will be made up of mind-controlled toys. It will actually be possible for kids to control toys with the power of their thoughts. With this technology brain waves are received by sensors in headsets which are than fed into electrical circuits. Professor Christopher James, Director of Warwick Engineering in Biomedicine at the School of Engineering, and his associates have developed technology which allows electrical impulses from brain waves to activate electronic devices. This can be done via connecting thoughts to computerized systems.
iTechPost reports kids will soon have toys which can be controlled via brain waves. This technology will clearly not be limited to toys. This is all very exciting and could lead the way to technology which makes it possible to unlock the front door or answer the phone via brain-computer interfaces. And who knows for certain in what ways this technology may help people with their work.
