Details are still light on that one, but Sega Toys (makers of freaky robots) and the brain-reading folks at NeuroSky have announced that they’ve teamed up in an effort to develop what they’re only describing as “mind-controlled tech toys,” which they say will “take ‘play’ to the next level.” Those unspecified toys will apparently produce use of NeuroSky’s ThinkGear bio-sensor technology which, according to the company, uses “dry active sensors” that eliminate the need for contact gels while additionally maintaining a small mold factor. Given the vagaries of the announcement, however, we wouldn’t expect the toys to be hitting store shelves anytime soon, but you can be certain that there’ll be plenty of attempts to “repurpose” them whenever they do.
