Brain waves control toys, could control virtual worlds

This brain-computer interface (BCI) headset reads brain waves, measuring anxiety, attention, drowsiness, and meditation levels. The brain waves are used to control toys; these toys could help children improve focus. Eventually, video game and virtual world interaction will be controlled via brain waves.

It could even enable players to control video game characters or avatars in virtual worlds with nothing but their thoughts.
