00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:34.920
oh I lost okay so I've been asked for a

00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:39.160
uh a demonstration video of the ocz uh

00:00:34.920 --> 00:00:40.840
Nia or neural impulse actuator and um so

00:00:39.160 --> 00:00:48.399
this is a as a bit of a practical demonstration of how the Nia can allow

00:00:44.360 --> 00:00:50.640
me to control this paddle using uh what

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

00:00:53.280 --> 00:01:00.640
not very well while I'm talking but I can usually control my tension either by

00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:04.399
raising my brow or lowering it or also by by clenching my

00:01:05.880 --> 00:01:16.560
jaw so that allows me to control the paddle and direct the ball back towards

00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:20.200
the computer player using only

00:01:16.560 --> 00:01:22.479
um like only U like actions and and

00:01:20.200 --> 00:01:25.880
thoughts uh there's actually some other pretty cool stuff in here and I just

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

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

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

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

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

00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:52.200
to control your games are attenion so um

00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:57.960
I found ways to control that I think it's different for for everybody another

00:01:54.399 --> 00:02:00.039
one is glance so ocz recommends using

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

00:02:02.520 --> 00:02:08.599
if I look straight ahead glance should zero out can you see glance in the

00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:11.599
background uh make it so you can see glance in the background okay so I'm

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

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

00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:27.239
now the Nia can actually tell whether I'm glancing left or right so ocz

00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:31.160
recommends setting glance to strafe left and strafe right and then they recommend

00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:34.599
using 10 to control your forward movement now I haven't found I've only

00:02:33.319 --> 00:02:38.760
been playing with it for a little while I haven't found ways to control the

00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:42.920
alpha waves or the beta waves but you can actually configure those to control

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

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

00:02:51.760 --> 00:02:59.440
to control the paddle so if I use glance

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

00:03:01.519 --> 00:03:07.959
straight ahead the paddle goes down so uh that's

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

00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:14.920
to uh to control things so that was my

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

00:03:17.040 --> 00:03:23.519
demo but hopefully that'll be coming sometime in the future it's definitely a

00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:26.519
uh a very cool device something very different
