This is awesome! The cube really blew my mind.
This is a great channel and I really like the website too. thanks.
All I hear is Nerv Gear and I'm loving it
computer brain interface + Oculus rift = a primitive version of Sword Art Online ... now we just need a more advanced headset to transfer our complete consciousness over ! lol The future is looking very bright indeed.
I cannot even begin to explain to you how exciting this is for me!
I have been waiting fo this since I was a child =)
These are the things that make me happy to live in these times.
THANK YOU TED!
THANK YOU ALL THE CREATORS OF THIS AMAZING TECH!
I can't wait to see these in stores someday. I really hope that someone also develops a neuro-therapy application for use at home! So many people would seriously benefit from that including myself!
you telling me this was 5 years ago and we have this
Yeah WTF 😐💔
10 years now
No nine
Evan Hamilton it’s actually 9 years, 10 months and 8 days. Pretty much 10 years
After almost a decade, BCI chips have become much more sophisticated. For example, Neuralink is creating an implant device that could be controlled through some kind of brain interface, or API.
I got here because I was wanting to see if the NervGear from sword are online would be possible.
Everyone here did xDd
+Rizal Antipuesto I think everyone did XD this SAO came out 2 yrs after this broadcast
as she talks about the computer learning algorithms he makes the box fade out. that was some good timing haha =)
This is some great technology they got there! Cant wait 'till stuff like that goes public(common)
estoy alucinando!!! I´m speechless,wow! so great future coming forward
absolutely amazing! This would be really great for people who are disabled or paralyzed!
May the force be with you!
Holy crap it works so well now, imagine where this goes in the future! I personally like the clip with lifting the stone in the game by thinking about it :P Now combine this with virtual reality and the possibilities for games and such are HUGE
Sword Art Online confirmed
Amazing. Just amazing.
So you can basically bind disappear to W. And then you open the game and thinking or pressing W to move forward when the software is learning to disappear. So you have binded move (thinking) to move in the game. Would be so cool to try and bind different things and play quake or something. The critique would be that we think alot faster then we do things and what delay is of interpreting the brain. Really cool head thing thought
with a log out option , for sure :D
this plus rift=epic
thank you for attempting also i hope that with the nerve gear i can be in other animes too like zero no tsukaima or rosario vampire
I think the best way to put it, is to say, watching this talk, felt good.
Though, I disliked the need to blink or smile for moving the wheelchar, I'd prefer thinking to move forwards or backwards like in the training example.
I was astonished.
This is BRILLIANT stuff!!! Well Done! :-)
wow this new chat is amazing
It might improve participants performance on difficult tasks like disappearing to "help" them visualize the task by showing a short looping video of what it will look like before testing them. Mild pain feedback might be good too when it comes to game control. I would love to play Mechwarrior with this kind of controller.
Amazing!
LINKS START!
ITS COMIN!!
LINK STARTO!
Incredible!
this is fucking awesome, the potential uses are limitless!!!
this is great for coma patients, lockedin syndroma etc.
I would really love to see this combined with sixth sense technology. I think it would almost completely merge the virtual world with our own.
You can partition your Mac to run both OSX, and Windows. I have this setup on my own computer. :) It's pretty useful.
6:19 ; best second of footage ever.
Hahaha - the guy in the audience with the glasses at 8:48 - I guess it really was a "jaw-dropping" demo for him. :D
damn it why doesnt ted ever post up the Q&A sections...
the time when the cube disappear is epic!!!!
This excites me and terrifies me equally.
Thank you for a new interesting information! I suppose, that this invention could be use in different ways and will make our life easier. In my opinion it is a future for a virtual skillls.
It's amazing what they can do with just that simple detector. One would imagine it's a lot less accurate than the net. I wonder if they can use it also for diagnostic purposes to find Alzheimer or Hyperactivity.
I like how on videos like this, everyone talks about SAO!
Once the "resolution" is better and faster, you can use it to store and recall arbitrary electronic memories (or actions) e.g. thinking "store", then "PatternX" then"do it", will store a current object that can be retrieved by "recall", "PatternX" "do it". or "quickrecall" "PatternX". So virtual telepathy, telekinesis and "videographic" memory would be possible. A problem then would be restrictive Copyright Laws...
@archolon yes, it's really amazing, what's even more amazing is that they are able to add this functionality but apparently still can't fix the 'total views' updates on videos
The Rolex ad was awesome. +1 for non-obtrusive ads!
Why isn't this in my local tech shop yet?
Awesome, and this was in 2010... wonder what improvements they've made in the last 2 1/2 years...
@KoyotoShadow I would think that after a while with these systems you would actually end up training your brain to better control your thoughts compared to someone who would never use it, and thus make it possible for advanced users to beable to use advanced function.
Much in the same way running on a higher mouse speed, you eventually would get used to the sensitivity of it.
@mazdaplz I wonder if the thought of individual words is unique enough to distinguish so a speaker could instantly say what he thinks, as he forms words in his mind. That'd be a great application of this.
when I think of the nerve gear im thinking there ganna trap us in the nerve gear for like 2 years in sao
SO MUCH YES!!!!!
CALL OF DUTY!
(Or ggo (sao2) of you think like that)
Man I'm so glade I'm not the only person that immediately thinks of SAO when it comes to VR technology's xD
il hope they make in game memory when we die on reallife we can conitniu in game :P il be happy ! :D
There is a movie Surrogates if you haven't watched it
7:27 FTW.
And can I please get my hands on one of these things? It's epic.
Now that's hands-free!
Now they need to make one that works with headphones and Oculus Rift, now that's virtual reality.
I wonder how good I could program with this thing ! No more having to deal with typos or keyboard layouts.
I'd say this could evolve into simple virtual reality within 4-7 years.
I've got so many applications for this device!
Simply connect the thought of walking to walking ingame,the thought of swing to swinging ingame etc.Induce sleep parralasis (Sleep parralasis happens every night you sleep,but you can induce one and stay awake but still be parralized) Mean you'll be able to act out walking in your head but not in real life.The video game would be a dream pretty much.
i cannot believe there is a four minute commercial about a watch at the end... a watch!
I'll see you all in SAO, ALO, and GGO c;
That's realy amazing
FaNtastic! When do I get to use one? Where do I go? Where do I apply?
Dude totally support you. Just make sure you have a log out button.
MOAR!
I saw occulus rift first, then I saw this brain wave reading headset on a kickstarter for a game called Son of Nor. Then it clicked on what you said for 4 on your list. Too bad I don't have the money to get an Occulus Rift and this headset thing.
I love being alive in this time. Sci-fi and near future are so much alike!
Can i get a lawnmower linked to this thing so i can chill and drink beer while i mow my lawn? That would be epic.
THIS IS GREAT
@zolikei They're still getting certification for mass market and such. If you want one that bad, you can pay 500 instead of 300, and that gives you access to the development SDK, and they'll send it anywhere. I'm considering it.
The blinking to turn should be the opposite, as closing the left eye creates a blind spot on the left. But maybe you are just supposed to wink with one eye.
Everyone else: Imagine playing SAO with this!
You: Imagine playing portal with that stuff ...
Its like a Neurohelmet from BattleTech. Holy crap! That is flipping crazy!
Combine that with an occulous rift and that will be bad ass
@1schwererziehbar1
Actually, this does work-- the system can discern different patterns of electrical activity-- the association between the thought and the action the system performs is arbitrary (i.e. you can associate "Pull" with "Open my internet browser")- it's basically a keyboard that works off your thought patterns. You have to be relaxed, and quiet for it to read you clearly. It takes practice, but it does work.
That said, these patterns can also be broadcast into the brain-scary
This will be so helpful to people who are para- or quadriplegic!
Amazing
@Creationsofmyown I saw that.
I was pretty bummed out when I saw that this was developed with software, mainly because I was hoping to do more research in this field.
However, since this doesn't use actual thoughts per se, there must be another alternate way (in the much farther future perhaps) to actually track real thoughts as electrical impulses...
Over a decade later but, I'm sure it has
this is very powerful
Incredible! Looks like people will eventually be able use the "force" then! :D
Wow, it really is interesting to see this type of technology being developed, but there are a bunch of problems with this type of human-machine interaction. From this clip, it's obvious that it has to be calibrated every time a new command is learned, which could be quite tedious. Also, you have to take in question the various cofactors in the thought process ( for example, various moods and levels of concentration affecting the efficiency). Best of luck to people developing this tech!!
9:42 - If you blink left to go left, and blink right to go right, do you close your eyes to go forward?
will still buy even if there isnt a logout button
very nice
@SimonSez83 yes... I understand this is more acurate and takes in count a lot more things like facial expressions and emotions... and most of all an improved algorythm... but the basic technology is the same: EEG! But the great thing is that is getting more and more perfect taking in acount a vast array of paremeters
hopefully!
@milotellsyoustories haha, they actually have. Its in development now.
@4unknown Those are updated every few hours.
This could be the beginning to Nerve Gear from Sword Art Online!!! I can't wait!!! :)
Awesome:)) It would be cool that in the future there would be a device, that would visualize my thoughts. it would be awesome:)
watching this in 2016, nothing out yet, but I feel like we will advance in technology in the next few years
Seems like their app is unusable play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.emotiv.insightapp&hl=en emotiv.com/software/.
Absolutely. I totally agree. "It's not the tech but how WE use it." So how do we as conscious and concerned human-beings ensure that the technology will be used for our highest good? The truth is - we can't be sure.
Yes, yes we are!
@wildwolf111 on the contrary, it's wireless, so we won't be forced to be sitting in front the computer to use it...
wow...imagine playing an FPS with this type of thing =O
@sherart I totally believe that we can manipulate matter with our mind. Actually, we do it all the time. Think about the simple action of moving your hand. But with this stuff, you're not moving objects with thought alone. Electrical impulses from your brain are being transferred into little electrical detectors on the headset. It's a bit misleading. In the example where the guy made the cube disappear, the program makes the cube disappear, the electrical signal from the guys brain triggers it.
I know I want one!
I can only IMAGINE what it'd be like to play a video game where you THINK the moves instead of try to force your hands to make the right combination of half-circles while pressing 'A'...
That looks EXACTLY like the device in Paprika!
so this is the base of nerve gear basically? kewl
pretty much
6:00
HE DID IT WITH HIS MIND!
ARE YOU A PSION?!
make Nerve gear
+steve wilks so your saying they could make the nerve gear because of how well they did with this then it could be made around 2016-2018
+steve wilks this i reading brain waves for imaginary commands nerv gear in sao intercept motor control commands and stopping them from reaching the nervs throughout the body if thats possible and harmless i see it being a very real and awesome thing but its like the fear of ai taking over the world i can see the whole gaming population using this sure preperations and safety can be put in place but still the fear of control would very much slow the technologies progress but the technologies medical aplications would be emense people who have lost limbs or are quadraplegics being able to replace there limbs with possable robotic limbs for them an as the show shows people in acouma could be reached through the gear only problem is the gear would still be needed to be calibrated to individual people and unless they can make gear that has its own calibration tutorial per gear itd be costly
Smell and hearing sight is easy all that is stopping us is just some years of tech growth
Wonderful discovery! I have been waiting for this; however, I am concerned as to how this technology will be used and applied... Will it go for the "games" furthering our downward spiral into self-sensual satisfaction & self-gratification; will it be used to finely tune the human desire for power, destruction, and warfare, or will it be used to lift humanity and show us CLEARLY that our human thoughts do affect the inner world and outer world? I hope for the best.
@TheAmigops it already is!!
@PlankKydo because the benefits to some people are so fantastic it would be wrong to deny them simply because others are unethical... thinking through the applications for people living with disabilities makes that pretty straightforward.... punish or prevent wrongoing....not an entire technology...
damn the ROLEX ad is just too good
