Netflix may soon have a way for binge-watchers to take their laziness to new heights.
A smart headband called Mindflix claims to let you control your Netflix menu with your mind. It detects your brain waves so precisely that you can select a show just by thinking about it. To flip from one option to the other, you simply shake your head. The device achieves all this by measuring your frontal lobe activity.
The gadget is a modified version of a Muse headband — which is designed to monitor brain activity for meditation purposes — outfitted with a motion sensor. The device was built as part of Netflix's internal hack day earlier this month, a regular event in which employees get together to casually experiment with new technologies.
