Gaming at the speed of thought

Can’t get that shot off in time? Get the “Jump” and “self destruct” keys mixed up in your favourite game? This uninspiring box may well have the answer, at least if it lives up to it’s claims.

OCZ, usually associated with high performance memory and PC components are selling this “Neural Impulse Actuator”. Otherwise known as thought control for your PC gaming.

”Yeah, right” I hear you say. Well, if I can get my hands on one I’ll report back but all I can say for now is that they claim you can send simple game signals (run, shoot, jump etc) by wearing the star-trek headband and thinking the appropriate actions. Oh, and training  – you have to get it to recognise your idea of “jump” as opposed to somebody else’s.

You can buy it from Overclockers UK for £86, but it’s currently showing as out of stock.
