1
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:34,920
oh I lost okay so I've been asked for a

2
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:39,160
uh a demonstration video of the ocz uh

3
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:40,840
Nia or neural impulse actuator and um so

4
00:00:39,160 --> 00:00:48,399
this is a as a bit of a practical demonstration of how the Nia can allow

5
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:50,640
me to control this paddle using uh what

6
00:00:48,399 --> 00:00:55,280
a control that they call tension so I found I'm able to control my tension uh

7
00:00:53,280 --> 00:01:00,640
not very well while I'm talking but I can usually control my tension either by

8
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:04,399
raising my brow or lowering it or also by by clenching my

9
00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:16,560
jaw so that allows me to control the paddle and direct the ball back towards

10
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:20,200
the computer player using only

11
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:22,479
um like only U like actions and and

12
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:25,880
thoughts uh there's actually some other pretty cool stuff in here and I just

13
00:01:24,079 --> 00:01:31,479
wanted to show you this one this is part of their driver so I tried a few things

14
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:35,200
and I I I wish I'd done this on camera cuz it was pretty neat but one of the

15
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:39,479
things that I tried was eating and I found that when I when I was eating my

16
00:01:37,399 --> 00:01:45,280
whole brain kind of went nuts and all of the uh all of the different brain waves

17
00:01:42,399 --> 00:01:50,640
all maxed out but um okay some of the controls that you can use with the Nia

18
00:01:47,079 --> 00:01:52,200
to control your games are attenion so um

19
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:57,960
I found ways to control that I think it's different for for everybody another

20
00:01:54,399 --> 00:02:00,039
one is glance so ocz recommends using

21
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:05,000
glance and here cameraman come out have a look at me so what glance does is here

22
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:08,599
if I look straight ahead glance should zero out can you see glance in the

23
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:11,599
background uh make it so you can see glance in the background okay so I'm

24
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:18,040
going to stare straight into the camera now watch I'm going to look a little bit to the left of the

25
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:22,840
camera glance goes up and then if I look to the right then glance will also go up

26
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:27,239
now the Nia can actually tell whether I'm glancing left or right so ocz

27
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:31,160
recommends setting glance to strafe left and strafe right and then they recommend

28
00:02:29,319 --> 00:02:34,599
using 10 to control your forward movement now I haven't found I've only

29
00:02:33,319 --> 00:02:38,760
been playing with it for a little while I haven't found ways to control the

30
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:42,920
alpha waves or the beta waves but you can actually configure those to control

31
00:02:41,640 --> 00:02:48,599
other things as well and when you're playing neong you can uh this is a good

32
00:02:45,959 --> 00:02:57,120
practice because you can use glance alpha 1 two 3 or beta 1 2 3 or tension

33
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:59,440
to control the paddle so if I use glance

34
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:02,640
if I glance more if I look around more the paddle raises up and if I look

35
00:03:01,519 --> 00:03:07,959
straight ahead the paddle goes down so uh that's

36
00:03:05,799 --> 00:03:13,080
the Nia it hooks up to your head and then to your computer and you can use it

37
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,920
to uh to control things so that was my

38
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:19,000
uh my demonstration video I don't think I'm good enough with it yet to do a game

39
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:23,519
demo but hopefully that'll be coming sometime in the future it's definitely a

40
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:26,519
uh a very cool device something very different
