Orange Dream's brainwave management software gets you closer to the Matrix
We'll be honest -- there are quite a few things about the Cyber MC brainwave management solution that remain unclear to us, but it's probably for the best. Korean startup Orange Dreams has apparently concocted some sort of eyewear / software combo that can control your brainwaves and calm your nerves, convince you that you really aren't craving nicotine or make you believe that fruits and vegetables really are more delicious than a Cadbury Cream Egg. We're not about to delve into how this thing actually intends to work, but those unafraid can give it a go next month.

Can it also convince you that you NEED to keep the glasses on? From there, all things are possible. I want a couple hundred pairs, I'm going to start building a zombie army...
It's a "Creme" Egg, sillies!
Seems like a hilariously fun gadget to try, even if it doesn't do squat.
hmmm i smell a "you all have cancer and this company has liquidated, coming on. i thought i saw something similar to this a while ago with liek sounds that changed the frequency of your brainwaves or something...
While visually exciting, the Matrix films sucked.
Gian
correction...Matrix Reloaded and Matrix Revolutions sucked.
THE FIRST THING someone will do when they get this is try and add p0rn to it.
The laugh will be on them when someone walks into the room and they don't realize it and begins to stare at them fornicating themselves.
Hey flash, what's wrong with my pic?
The glasses will convince them furries are awesome.
Poor onlookers...
Premarital sex with them self? fornication is the act of sex between two unmarried people. learn the meaning the the word before you start using it plz.
I know it's OT, but I really like orange creamsicles.
where are the fugcicles bart?
My guess would be that it appears to be a device that casts low frequency waves. These waves interact with your mind and the result is a more relaxed person. It's not something like where you put them on and are instantaneously mellow, if you know what I mean.
I believe this type of treatment is used in some cases of depression. But for all I know, these goggles are something completely different.
this is exactly what it is, and they have been around for a long time (since the dream machine of the 70s)
it can be done with sound too, this is old recycled technology....

There is nothing more delicious than a Cadbury Cream Egg, and no gadget will make me believe otherwise.
The start of how everything in the Matrix tasting like chicken was created!
sounds like a alpha/beta/delta/theta wave syncroniser, as in http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2007/05/hack_your_brain_make_vide.html

Those look like peril-sensitive glasses from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Looks like it might be based on Windows.
What happens to your brain when a BSOD comes up?
Premarital sex with them self? fornication is the act of sex between two unmarried people. learn the meaning the the word before you start using it plz.
uhhh... it's a joke. not an essay on Nietzsche. choose your battles. that's an idiom.
Am I the only adult on Engadget? These things have been around since the 80's. They're typically called light/sound machines. Some shrinks even use them on their patients.
Sooo.. the iPhone is the way to get out of the Matrix?
Shouldn't the machines be all over it trying to destroy it using their agents then?
The thing probably just emits pulses that supposedly keep you calm..
Eh, 50 bucks.. I might give it a shot... when it comes down to 30 or so..
Just like JavaScript code with flashing animations, this device can cause epileptic seizures!
Why does it have to look like an iPhone?
Breathtaking good geek looks. Sine waves turn me on. Give me a phone looking like this with an oscilliscope.
Oscilliscopes FTW
The cake is a lie and this will not convince me otherwise. And since there is no spoon, I can neither have my cake nor eat it.
Zygon used to sell a product called the Supermind back in the early 90s that supposedly did similar things. Waste of money then, waste of money now.
