Re: A new method of playing video games

There's something about that that is just plain.............wrong.

What will be next? Implant the clicker for a garage door in your head so all you'll have to do is think about opening the door as you get home and then it automatically opens. How about the TV remote, the ceiling fan, the coffee maker, or the............never mind, I could keep going!

[EDIT]
Something just occured to me. If this idea does take off and, say in 20 years or so, imagine what impact it could have on FIRST. There won't be anymore joysticks or other driver controls for that matter, all the drivers on your team will have chips implanted in them to control the robot out on the field.
