The Japanese entertainment giant Sony has patented an idea for transmitting data directly into the brain, with the goal of enabling a person to see movies and play video games in which they smell, taste and perhaps even feel things, it was reported today...READ MORE

thats really old...i remember hearing about that over a year ago...just because they patented(sp?) it, doesn't mean it wil happen, and even if it does, chances are it'll be another 50+ years before it actually happens

I'd rather not have a big hole in my head, thank you. I'll take a holodeck instead.

That's not the Matrix, you would still be able to move in the real world, they would just directly simulate senses. There's no mind transfer like in the Matrix, you wouldn't die if you were shot either.

true true but you forget with the big hole in the back of your head you can learn everything instantly.. and if everybody gets the big hole implanted when they get born it will soon be normal.

I think he means you will be forced to watch the commercials .. no more zappping when commercials come on... Thats would result in a lot more killings I think.

We still have yet to understand big chunks of the human brain. All that "gray matter," yet we feel ready to tap into what we know? No risk no reward, I guess.

Well I'm sure the government is actually ahead of them, at least in the terms of control. Now what makes such ideas great in my opinion? Brain Control Systems for fighter planes :D

PS5 anyone? Lets hope it doesn't crash, as that means our brain just shut itself down. And we'd be dead.
