Look mum, no hands ! Mind control in JavaScript

on YouTube ↗30m

" summary

An open source JavaScript framework hooks an Emotiv EPOC (14 channels) to the browser via a node.js module with C++ SDK bindings, exposing facial expressions, gyroscope/accelerometer, and trainable mental commands. Live demos include a blink/left/right brain keyboard that mostly works, a flimsy thought-driven 3D navigation demo, and a facial-expression drone takeoff that operates intermittently. Limitations noted: per-user training, latency, and poor spatial resolution; experimentation continues with an open DCI raw‑data board and simple KNN prototypes.
