"Eye"'ll be asking for this from Santa

This post doesn't have much to do with social media, but something that is pretty interesting and (to me) amazing.

Eye Controlled Earphones

The concept is since your eyes have an electrical potential, the headphones have tiny electrodes that picks up the change in electrical activity from which way your eyes move. Look left two times in succession to go back a track, and right two times in succession to skip a track, and so on for the other controls (looking clockwise/counter clockwise changes volume, etc).

This to me is extremely interesting, as technology is now beginning to morph into the body's natural movements and functions. What could be next? A blue tooth molar cap that lets you talk to people from your phone through it? A massager that dectects when your stressed and adapts instantly?

To me this use of technology is amazing. The slow adapters may see it as unneccesary or creepy, but think about what would our great grandparents would have said about Twitter, which the public is slowly but surely beginning to adapt to.
