Emotiv

今天在帮我们的音乐设计师搜交互式音乐的开发资料的时候看到了这货…我立刻就抖了！

让我们来看看官方的介绍:

ased on the latest developments in neuro-technology, Emotiv has developed a revolutionary new personal interface for human computer interaction.  The Emotiv EPOC is a high resolution, neuro-signal acquisition and processing wireless neuroheadset.  It uses a set of sensors to tune into electric signals produced by the brain to detect player thoughts, feelings and expressions and connects wirelessly to most PCs.

Headset Features:

• Limited edition design
• 14 saline sensors offer optimal positioning for accurate spatial resolution
• Gyroscope generates optimal positional information for cursor and camera controls
• Hi-performance wireless gives users total range of motion
• Dongle is USB compatible and requires no custom drivers
• Lithium Battery provides 12 hours of continuous use

The limited edition EPOC is released in the US in limited quantities, and early users will have access to the Emotiv App Store and the very first games and programs developed exclusively for this one-of-a-kind neuro-technology platform. Developers are currently utilizing Emotiv EPOC technology in a variety of new and exciting ways.

Artistic and creative expression - Use your thoughts, feeling, and emotion to dynamically create color, music, and art.

Life changing applications for disabled patients, such as controlling an electric wheelchair, mind-keyboard, or playing a hands-free game.

Games & Virtual Worlds - Experience the fantasy of controlling and influencing the virtual environment with your mind. Play games developed specifically for the EPOC, or use the EmoKey to connect to current PC games and experience them in a completely new way.

Market Research & Advertising - get true insight about how people respond and feel about material presented to them. Get real-time feedback on user enjoyment and engagement.

Included Free with the Emotiv EPOC: EmoKey

EmoKey links the Emotiv technology to your applications by easily converting detected events into any combination of keystrokes. EmoKey is a nonintrusive, lightweight, background process that runs behind your existing applications or games. EmoKey lets you create profiles that define how detections are mapped to keystroke combinations. Your profiles can then be saved and shared so you can use profiles that your friends have created for your favorite games and software. EmoKey profiles can be as simple as linking the Expressiv smile detection to characters such as “:)”, so that chat applications instantly know when you smile. Or they can be as complex as linking a “lift” command to a sequence of keystrokes that trigger a levitation spell in a game. When combined, the Emotiv EPOC neuroheadset and Emokey make your inputs more simple, personal, natural, and direct. There’s no need for keystroke combinations, simply smile or focus on a command and your applications respond. Use EmoKey to interact with your digital applications like instant messaging and virtual environments, or experience your current PC games in a completely new way.

你可以将这个插管器用于艺术创作, 游戏, 虚拟现实等。

那么脑波控制器对于游戏领域的意义又如何呢？ 来自玩家直观的反应的交互又能创造什么样的乐趣呢？

啃奶再加个脑后插管器…. 我想未来的游戏制作一定会更加充满挑战和乐趣！
