This blew me away. It's a small step for a man, if you see what I mean.
This first link goes to the best blog post I found (from a site called Pink Tentacle) describing details of research that was conducted at a Japanese university, and published previously in Japanese. This second link goes to the Japanese-language page on which the university published its research. I don't read Japanese, but the two links (labeled Windows and Macintosh in English) above the photo on the page take you to a video demonstration of a guy controlling an avatar in SL with electrodes strapped to his head and his hands in his lap.
Assuming the video isn't rigged, it's a fascinating portent of possibilities to come! How rapidly can research like this become useful from a product/production point of view?
