NeuroSky Brain Computer Interface takes to the stage

Posted: 14 Mar 2010 07:27 PM PDT

The Game Developers Conference (GDC) was more than stellar with the presence of Silicon Valley-based NeuroSky Brain Computer Interface (BCI) Technologies, thanks to the latter’s range of technology which promises to revolutionize the traditional gaming paradigm, enhance interactivity and in many instances, add further evidence to the increase of mental health benefits when it comes to game play. Those who attended GDC will be able to experience the efforts that developers are making to ride the wave of the next revolution in gaming via brainwave integration. Apart from that, NeuroSky's new bio-command features and next generation headset which were specially designed for gamers were also unveiled, alongside a developer program which will support third party developers in creating or enhancing BCI applications.

Among the new applications demonstrated by a fistful of NeuroSky's partners will feature games within the iPhone and cellphone industry, serious, casual and educational, as well as market research applications. Of course, what is the point of attending GDC as an exhibitor if you do not have any new products up for review? NeuroSky’s latest product announcements include the Mindset Wave Brain Gaming Headset, where this gamer-centric headset is capable of delivering a lower price point and imaginative new features. Being a snap to wear while being extremely lightwight, it will be able to fit securely to enable an active gaming experience. You can opt for wireless or self-pairing USB connectivity for an effortless setup. Depending on volume and bundling options, the Mindset Wave Brain Gaming Headset is going for $49 to $99, shipping before the frantic Christmas 2010 holiday season begins.

Another interesting device would be what they call the Zone Meter. Gamers will be able to identify with athletes when it comes to 'the zone', since sometimes you are placed in a situation where all of your shots hit the target, not to mention you can pull off a variety of moves flawlessly without taking a single mos-step. For the first time, 'the zone' can be quantified and harnessed, thanks to a proprietary combination of mental attention with balanced relaxation in order to open up a whole new dimension in video games. Looks like gaming has just become a whole lot more scientific, eh?

Moonlight Cushion gives LED light show

Posted: 14 Mar 2010 03:57 PM PDT

You shouldn’t be stuck only enjoying a light show from conventional lamps and strobe lights.  Instead, you need one on your pillow.  It’s the softest light show you’ll ever come in contact with.  It might not be the pillow you choose while you’re trying to fall asleep at night, but the rest of the time the lights would be cool to have around.

It is packed full of low energy LED lights.  All of those lights are packed away inside of a zip-up compartment.  Hopefully it won’t take away from the comfort factor.  It cycles through colors and only requires a tap to flip on or off.  It would work great for a subtle night light in a child’s room.  Currently these are out of stock until the 3rd of May.  At that time one of these will cost you £24.99 or about $38 through Thumbs Up UK.

Dew Quiver iPod Shoulder Strap

Posted: 14 Mar 2010 02:30 PM PDT

Companies are always trying to find new innovative ways for you to carry an iPod outside of your pockets.  Some of them have looked a bit on the odd side.  This Quiver actually walks in a gray area.  Sure, it’s a bit different, but it actually offers some volume control directly on the shoulder strap.  That at least gives it a little bit more of an edge.

It’d be nice to have something to carry your small gadgets within that actually does something besides hold onto them.  This will control volume and even let you skip between songs.  It even has a headphone management system to help you keep things organized.  It features stretch fabric that repels water and still allows for the material to breathe.  It’s designed for everything from walking around town to more vigorous activities like jogging and biking.  You can purchase it for $84.99.

Spiderpodium flexible travel dock

Posted: 14 Mar 2010 01:43 PM PDT

For those of you that have a smartphone of some kind, you might want a more convenient way to watch all of those videos.  Sure, you could just hold onto it, but that’s not nearly as much fun.  It’s much nicer to just kick back and pretend you’re back home sitting on your comfortable couch watching a movie on your TV.  Well thankfully although this stand will make your phone look a little creepy, it’ll make it so that you can watch videos while you’re away from home in true comfort.

These Spiderpodiums are extremely lightweight and are compact enough to slip into your pocket.  It’s compatible with most compact handheld devices.  That includes things like normal cellphones, smartphones, gaming systems, MP3 players, camcorders and even portable projectors.  These aren’t out just yet, but they are available for pre-order.  They’ll cost you £14.99 or about $23 and will be out on March 29th.
