Anyone want to take a bet that soon commercial airspace will be sold to be broadcast in those helmets?

I have known a lot of soldiers. Their thought activity often focuses on one general subject. I know soldiers are supposed to be different now, but does the system include filters?

So how does the helmet respond to “Holy $#*+!”?

Sounds like something the global corporate behemoth Massive Dynamics will produce on an episode of Fringe.

[When do we get liberated?]

That sounds like a nightmare...What if all day long the radio waves were covered up with “Did I leave the coffee on?” “when’s that new World of Warcraft coming out” or worse “my wife is such a base bunny, should have listened to my mother”

Do we really want to broadcast thought?

[Leg Olam]

By implication I suppose you would then experience your buddys thoughts. I don’t particuarly wish to have someones dying thoughts or panic in my head. This experiment could have some very nasty outcomes.

Brain waves to control military equipment?

Wait! I know, build an aircraft helmet that, when worn by a pilot, will allow the pilot to control the complete functions of an aircraft-one that can fly so fast that it responds even to thoughts;it can manage weapon systems, everything.., ....

Oh wait....

FIREFOX!!!

The Army's Totally Serious Mind-Control Project

AFN commercials?

This technology may go mainstream sooner than we think. Some researchers have monkeys controlling a mechanical arm with just their brains. I could see the Army being interested in a tank commander being able to control his turrent by just thinking about it.
