OCZ Technology Neural Impulse Actuator (NIA) - Play Video Games With Your Mind OCZ's Neural Impulse Actuator (nia) marks a new era in gaming. Rather than being a substitute for a mouse, the nia is a pioneering new peripheral to be used in conjunction with your mouse for a more immersive gaming experience. The nia is compatible with any PC game using keyboard input... past, present, or future. Predefined profiles included with the software allow the gamer to develop their own nia-memory to launch the desired behavior of their character and shoot with the "blink of an eye", without lifting a finger.
In short, this device can detect muscle movement, contraction (through nervous system electrical feed differences) in the general area where the band is positioned on the head. Therefore, it is not a replacement for a mouse, it acts as a way to trigger more actions (similar to having extra buttons on the mouse) but not to use hands/fingers to execute them. Therefore, you can wink an eye or to move a skin on your forehead, etc, to trigger those extra actions.
Features:
- Play Games Using Biosignals:
Translate electrical biosignals of your body directly into computer commands and take advantage of total immersion into game play. Customize behavioral profiles of your character and let your subconsciousness take over.
- Hone Your Reflexes:
Where others have to practice reaction times, you can use reflex-based game play to get the better of your opponents by cutting your reaction time by 50%.
- Use Space-Age Technology:
The headband uses carbon nanofiber-based sensors to provide the highest possible dynamic range for the recording of bioelectrical signals that are amplified and digitized and further de-convoluted into computer commands.
- Become Your Character:
Streaming biopotentials into the computer and witnessing real-time feedback through the game will result in a novel way to experience virtual reality. Enter a virtual world where abstractions like keyboard commands are replaced by intentions converted into tensions and translated into command structures.
