Technology:Emotiv Brainwave Control Gadget
Now, this is one nice gadget to have for PC controls. A device that reads brain wave and signals then translate it into digital input signals. So, what does it applies to e-Learning then? Well it’s all about the experience, I see the possible future for technology such as these in immersive 3D e-Learning. For me, 3D in e-learning is not just about getting a clearer picture of how things in different angle or simulated learning , it is also about the experience of it.
Imagine this, with that headset of that, user can control 3D avatar in a fully simulated e-Learning class as cooking e.g. simulation of how slicing cooking material (like those cooking games in Nintendo Wii) or how to escape a building in case of a fire instead of just looking at the 2D map. Also in terms of control, this gadget can help people which are physically challenged the ability to tap into the cyber world. More information about this device is available at Emotiv.com
