NeuroSky's mind-reading headsets haven't exactly revolutionized modern
user input -- they just measure midichlorian count and control an app
or three -- but the company's definitely moving towards products that
the general public can take seriously. This BrainAthlete system, for
instance, first graced Tokyo Game Show 2010 as an ugly sweatband, but
has since graduated to this handsome golf visor cap, which merely
measures an athlete's brainwaves as they play rather than promise
brain control. The idea is that trainers can analyze the data in real
time, and potentially find strengths and weaknesses in their charges'
state of mind. The 40,000 yen (about $483) went on sale in Japan early
this month, and promises to find stateside availability in the first
quarter of next year. Plenty of time for you to figure out how you're
going to get one onto your opponent's head. Video after the break.
