First Virtual Home Controlled Only By The Thought


This will be the basis for building smart houses reals, it will be controlled by the minds of its inhabitants.


Turn off or turn on the light, open a door or change of channel, are actions than might go down in history, thanks to the power of mind and a new technology than consists in a brain-computer interface (BCI) than records the thoughts of user and change them into orders, which takes over and runs the house. At the moment the system has only been applied to a virtual home environment, but the good results obtained suggest that soon will be built a house of truth with the same capabilities. The Domotics thus gives a step forward that will have multiple applications, especially for the disabled.


The smart houses of the future will could be governed only by the thoughts of its inhabitants. The advantages are apparent: this possibility will increase, for example, the autonomy of people with a physical disability or would make it more enjoyable for TV addicts.


The project aims is incorporate initially BCI technology to virtual environments. To test it, has been created a fully functional smart home virtual reality.


Mr. Guger, executive director of the company, said: "This house has a kitchen, a bathroom, a living room... something that may have a normal home. Users can move around only thinking about where they want to go."
