Comment on Brainwave headset review: the BCInet NIA Plus by deepa

When we tried out the headset, we felt that we had to make sharp movements, but we are told that over time, the player learns that s/he can control things with subtler muscle movements. We have to remember here though that the “movement” which is picked up is actually a change in tension somewhere on the face. In order to know whether a change in tension is caused by a smile vs., say, your tongue pressing against the roof of your mouth, you’d have to have sensors in various spots around the face, not just on the forehead.

While mapping facial muscle movement to fast paced action game controls, such as shooting or strafing, may not make much sense, there is a possibility here of picking up involuntary facial movements of a more communicative nature, such as laughter, and map that onto avatar facial controls in online social environments such as Second Life. I would love to know if someone has tried this yet.

Hi Heather!

Sorry for the late reply, I just saw this comment. The trip was great. My answer will be boring – I married an Icelander. Hope you are well.

Thanks, Jóhann! I agree about Wave – I tried to use it for one group project in-house and everyone gave up on it.

Jesse Schelle’s book of lenses is the best book on game design that I’ve read and probably one of the best non-fiction books I’ve ever read! Clear, insightful, interesting and well structured. Would definitely buy it again if I lost my copy.

It’ll be interesting to see how your interactive application helps you grow your ideas. Such a tool is definitely useful to keep track of and evolve ideas. At Dexoris we’ve simply been using Google documents and I really want to use Wave (so extendable and readable!) but until they fix some of the performance issues it’s basically unusable.
