Thoughts Recognition?!

You got to watch this because it is just so freaking amazing...

This is what I call, "You have to see it to believe it."

...

Voice recognition is nothing new.

Face recognition is nothing new.

...

How about "Thoughts Recognition?

...


Watch CBS Videos Online

"In the clip, see how a completely paralyzed man, who could otherwise only communicate by moving his eyes, uses his mind to type out thoughts on a computer screen. Of course, the process is very slow going—each letter takes up to 20 seconds to type. When the letter he was thinking of highlighted, he'd think "that's it!" and that signal of recognition would type the letter on-screen." (LifeHacker.com)



I laughed at the portion where the monkey moves the mechanical arm. It's incredible! (And cute!)

Of course this technology is still very new, but imagine what the future could hold...

"This is the seed of my most-wanted, dream computer interface, one that doesn't involve pecking at keys. Imagine a day when, like speech recognition, thought recognition becomes possible, and you can narrate your thoughts to your computer or handheld device."

...

Maybe one day, there'll be a computer game that will be played ENTIRELY using Thoughts Recognition!

Imagine how CRAZY that would be!

!!!

How about a Grand Theft Auto played using Thoughts Recognition?!

"Change to bazooka!"
"Blow that car up!"

Ewwww...

...

I can't imagine what the world would be like if something like this really happens...



Technology/Computers are so amazing.

And I'm so glad to be studying them~
