Get In The Halfpipe!: A Mind-Controlled Skateboard
This is of the guys from Chaotic Moon Labs (pfft -- your chaotic moon has nothing on the one in Majora's Mask!) demonstrating their mind-controlled skateboard.

To slow down and stop, you imagine the point you wanted to travel to becoming closer and closer, until you're there. To die, you think 'GO GO GO -- VROOM VROOM VROOM!' while aimed at a cliff.
Hit the jump for the demo.

I'm pretty sure this is every five-year old boy's first invention. Of course, few have the technical know-how to make it happen. And even fewer are allowed to play with power tools. But grownup Ray Bavetta kept the dream alive and slapped a 3.7HP model airplane engine on a ... / Continue →
