Now, an iPhone app that can read minds!

LONDON: Experts have come up with a new application for the iPhone that has the ability to read minds.The XWave enables users to control on-screen objects with their minds as well as train their brains to control attention spans and relaxation levels.It works via a headset strapped around the user’s forehead, plugging into the iPhone jack.A state-of-the-art sensor within the device can then read the user’s brainwaves through the skull, converting them into digital signals before displaying them in various colours on the iPhone screen.And as the mind focuses on a particular task the graphics change, indicating the user’s level of concentration or relaxation.The device is the latest in the field of emerging mind-controlled games and devices.Innovations giant PLX Devices developed the high-tech sensor using technology that has for years been used by doctors to treat epilepsy and seizures in patients – Geonews
