Well, I can't describe how insanely awsome this is. And i just started to laugh of excitement when I tried to immagine all the things you can create for this.
Well basically. It's a headset that can read your mind, for 300 bucks. You record a thought, (like immagine your character running), and the next time you think it, the headset recognize it and sends a signal that you can use for whatever you want.
let it sink in.

I might be exaggerating when I say this, but I'm probably not. This technology is the future, and it will take over the world within a couple of years. I'm buying one as soon as i can afford it, but someone needs to program a plugin for construct before it can be used. I will love the person who makes that plugin for eternity, and so will the rest of the community, and also the rest of the world after they've played all the awsome mind-controlled games we'll be creating.
Quote from the support:
"The official supported programming language is C++ and C#. Wrappers for other languages such as Delphi can be created and we've seen open source support (not Emotiv's code) for this, e.g., http://www.codeplex.com/emotif. The main Control Panel application and the underlying libraries are written in C++ but many of our apps are written in C#. The SDK system has a .NET wrapper making it compatible with many different application languages. Developers are writing code in VB.NET, C++ and C#."
And here's a link to the manual: http://emotiv.com/developer/SDK/UserManual.pdf
I'm fizzing inside with excitement. Hope you get the same feeling.
