Very cool. Now we won't be disturbed by those loud-mouthed jerks at Starbucks who talk on their phone all day. Heh. I'm one of them.
Nerve-tapping neckband used in 'telepathic' chat - tech - 12 March 2008 - New Scientist Tech
A neckband that translates thought into speech by picking up nerve signals has been used to demonstrate a "voiceless" phone call for the first time.With careful training a person can send nerve signals to their vocal cords without making a sound. These signals are picked up by the neckband and relayed wirelessly to a computer that converts them into words spoken by a computerised voice.
Users needn't worry about that the system voicing their inner thoughts though. Callahan says producing signals for the Audeo to decipher requires "a level above thinking". Users must think specifically about voicing words for them to be picked up by the equipment.
