Geeking Out

The Necromimi animatronic brain-reading cat ear hat.

The future is here! Neuroware is reality! As a hat with fluffy cat ears...

If you're a sci-fi geek, you'll have been long waiting for neuroware - items that use your brain waves to control things such as phone communication, email, mapping and more. In the military, you could use neuroware to read vital signs of troops in the field and feed them info on their surrounds. In the consumer world, it could measure your interest levels in things you see and be used to feed you information on what matters to you.
