The Nightmare in Silicon Valley: 8 horror technologies that should scare you to death
Every night is fright night with what can happen once these scary technologies take hold in ways that you may not have imagined.
With devices like the Myo Gesture Control Armband available for less than $200, tinkerers and DIYers are coming up with all kinds of ways to control life with the swipe of a hand.
The dynamic movement of our muscles allows us to dexterously manipulate noise-making objects. Gesture control takes the physical interaction between human and instrument out of the equation by reading our muscle movements directly. Hook up a myoelectric armband to a MIDI drum kit and tell mom to go get some earplugs (or just turn the volume down a bit).
Thalmic labs figured out how to play a guitar with gesture control.
