I think I might get the class to wear these so I can tell if they are concentrating.

I think it is awesome that this was developed, just as a feat of technology. But I cannot imagine a market for it anywhere else in the world.

(i.e. mentally ill, verbally-challenged)

They’re not anything like a cochlear implant; they’re just a novelty item that employs a strange level of technology.

Real cats would probably not react in an interesting way. Like most animals they communicate largely with body language, which tends to be much more nuanced than “ears stand up, ears flatten down.”

The control method is interesting, though. Brain-to-computer interface is an exciting field for me, and as clumsy and pointless as this is it’s at least nice to see people experimenting with it. Not as cool as the Smarthand, though.
