Post subject:  OCZ NIA review

i bought one of these a few weeks ago.
i must say quite surprising. its not just brain activity its also face movements.

i have read other reviews online and its 50/50 for reviews. some say its a rip off some say it works.

setup was a breeze. took about 10 mins to calibrate and within 20 mins i was playing UT3. i was doing good actually. some reaction times were defiantly faster. what i found myself doing was actually thinking on walking forward and loan behold i walk forward. with abit of facial expression as well.


they have 4 parts to the signals. one for facial movement. one for eye glance. and 2 brain fingers as they call it (alpha and beta). each brain finger has 3 separate wavelengths witch apparently after time u can learn to use them individually. it is really hard to get use to.

u also need to be completely relaxed it just dont preform properly if u are tired or stressed. and your pc and yourself have to be grounded well. i had to hold the device in my keyboard hand to keep the base line suitable for configuration.

any game enthusiast should give it a try. im not just saying that because i happen to be selling one. they are really the next generation in gaming for sure.

Thanks for the quick review. :) It would be neat if there were some tools for it that let you do/test other things like how well different people can use it for controlling things or maybe getting a readout of the brain activity and try and figure out what different frequencies might relate to (ie. how stressed are they during certain games, if their mind "wonders" a lot... you know what I'm saying here ;)).
