Mind Controlled Google Glass

The free, open-source ‘MindRDR’ software connects Google Glass with a low-cost brainwave-reading headset that enables users to operate the device by concentrating instead of controlling it with voice commands or by tilting the head.

Though the app can so far only take photos and publish them to the internet, it could point to a future generation of touch-free interfaces for consumer technology that don’t need users to wave their hands around or talk embarrassingly to an inanimate object.
