3.  Produce a three plus dimensional controller for widespread application  RC car  Mechanical arm  Hands free light for medical uses Adapted from www.toysrus.com

5.  One dimensional  Controls a fan that controls the height of a ball  Requires training time  Priced at about $100  Reversed engineered to see how they work

6.  Interprets beta waves  Uses one electrode on the forehead and two references behind the ears  Uses an algorithm to control the fan  Interprets fluctuations in brain waves  Uses two electrodes on the forehead and two references on the ears Adapted from www.thinkgeek.com Adapted from www.mindflexgames.com/
