GDC 2010: NeuroSky shows off Mindset Wave and Mind Invaders

NeuroSky, the company that helped make that MindFlex game that was so popular last year, made an appearance at the 2010 Game Developers Conference to show off its stuff. Primarily, NeuroSky is there to show off the MindSet Wave and its application and iPhone developer programs.

The MindSet Wave is NeuroSky’s latest brainwave game controller, and follows in the footsteps of the already available MindSet. It is a headset you wear on your head, and use to control various MindSet Wave compatible games. It’ll be out before Winter, 2010 and cost somewhere between $49 and $99. To get a better idea of what it’ll be like by looking at the previous model, the MindSet, a PC and Mac controller that comes with a NeuroBoy game, a CD with various programs that work with the device, a brainwave visualizer so you can see your mind at work and the MindSet Development Tools so you can make your own games. The original MindSet is more expensive though, costing $199.

Aside from the MindSet Wave, there are also games from other developers there showing how NeuroSky’s brainwave reading technology can be used to enhance the gaming experience…
