Kinesia

Yeah I agree, I prefer this forum. Sorry for the guys who made other sites ;), no hard feelings right?

Yeah sure Mactyville sure I would really like to contribute to this project and really don't mind that anyone steals my ideas as long as they mention me as the one who came up with it. The more competition there is, the faster it will go :). And to zedovr, the mind is easely tricked

@zedovr If we tricked the mind in to thinking that we do not need to contract a muscle that hard to be in movement, then in game it would look like you made a full movement while in real life your just barely contracting your muscle. Does this make sense to you? Or correct me if I'm wrong. I still need to do some research on this, but I think its more achievable than a EEG that reeds your movement. But we could still use it for other things like 'using the force' if you've seen those videos where they're moving a cube with their mind

Hello everyone I've been reading this topic for a few days and would like to share my thoughts with you on the NG. I'm a 19 year old student in kinesitherapy. First I want to speak about reading the brain or body. You see we do not possess enough knowledge about the brain that's why they started the brain initiative. So instead of reading impulses in the brain with EEG, why not simply reading impulses sent to the muscles? So how I see the NG is like some kind of morphe suit that uses EMG (electromyography) it's very simular to EEG and it is non-intrusive. The only thing that needs to be worked on is how do you interpret those signals to move your avatar in game. This knowledge is based on what i found here.

I think our best bet here is nanotechnology. All I know is that would have to replicate feedback from moving joints and tonus in the muscles, this important then the sense of touch. I hope I brought some helpful information. And please excuse me for my english, I'm from belgium. Also I'm very familiar with the quote system so sorry for that :D I mean not. Sorry for spamming
