    Hitachi: Control Devices With Your Thoughts

    http://news.digitaltrends.com/news/s..._your_thoughts

    Hitachi is forging ahead with the next development in control: using your thoughts. The company’s Japanese researchers have created a system that allows users to control the motion of a toy electric train with thoughts alone.
    The device is based on a special cap that uses infrared light to monitor blood flow in the brain – technology known as optical topography. By mapping the output of many sensors, the cap can sense when different parts of the brain are active.
    Although the demonstration is just a crude example of how the technology could be used, eventually researchers hope to refine it so that it can be used to perform useful tasks. For instance, it might eventually be possible to control a television set and channel surf without ever picking up a remote control.
