OCZ Neural Impulse Actuator (nia)

Introduction

OCZ’s Neural Impulse Actuator (nia) marks a new era in gaming. Rather
than being a substitute for a mouse, the nia is a pioneering new
peripheral to be used in conjunction with your mouse for a more
immersive gaming experience. The nia is compatible with any PC game
using keyboard input… past, present, or future. Predefined profiles
included with the software allow the gamer to develop their own
nia—memory to launch the desired behavior of their character and shoot
with the “blink of an eye”, without lifting a finger.

Play Games Using Biosignals
Translate electrical biosignals of your body directly into computer
commands and take advantage of total immersion into game play.
Customize behavioral profiles of your character and let your
subconsciousness take over.

Hone Your Reflexes
Where others have to practice reaction times, you can use reflex-based
game play to get the better of your opponents by cutting your reaction
time by 50%.

Use Space-Age Technology
The headband uses carbon nanofiber-based sensors to provide the highest
possible dynamic range for the recording of bioelectrical signals that
are amplified and digitized and further de-convoluted into computer
commands.

Become Your Character
Streaming biopotentials into the computer and witnessing real-time
feedback through the game will result in a novel way to experience
virtual reality. Enter a virtual world where abstractions like keyboard
commands are replaced by intentions converted into tensions and
translated into command structures.
