Mind-controlled car?


Have you ever thought that you can control your car by simply thinking? An AI professor at the Freie Universität Berlin and his team have demonstrated how a driver can use a brain interface to steer a vehicle. The researchers use Emotiv's mind-reading EPOC headset to record the brain's activity of a driver. After a few rounds of "mental training," the driver is able to move virtual objects by simply thinking. The BrainDriver software then associates the patterns to specific commands -- turn left, turn right, accelerate etc. Check out the vehicle in actions right after the break!
