OC3D Exclusive: OCZ prepares Neural Impulse Actuator for shipping next week

Sounds good. If ocz are still reading this thread, I hope they realise how arrogent their pr, and often times lack of PR is. By delaying it getting shipped out, You'll likely get thrashed by the emotiv.
 
I like the look of the emotiv....I think price thoughs gonna be an issue...and the fact that it looks like something Doc Brown would knock up...its looking like a space age cycle helmet...
 
nothing, nich, nowt, bugger all, I've been shifted from new products to website development...which is about as much fun as pooping razor blades....I'll have a word with our product guy tomorrow morning and see if I can get anything out of him...
 
In stock

After having a quick word this morning with our product manager he told me there are 6 NIA's left from the current delivery after we completed all backorders over the weekend. Anyone who ordered from us expect it to be with you in the following days. Apparently theres gonna be another break before the next batch but its not as bad as last time, or so I'm being lead to believe, but as most of you know theres a big difference between what we've been told and what actually transpires, anyway if you want one get your orders in quick cos I cant see them lasting the day....
 
It seems a few places are getting it in now, which is a good thing. Going to be a bit more activity soon I think. Wheres the reviews on this site??
 
Mine was dispatched today from play. Hopefully will arrive tomorrow, as I'm away on friday for the weekend. Game on!

*Hey, first post, I come form OCN, so OC3D seems to share a similar interest... and then the NIA too...*

I just did a little research.

1) on the ocz site, there is no mention of the NIA under perhipherals in the hyperlinks in the left column

2) the top bar (flash animated) I took products >> perhipherals > OCZ NIA

3) after reading the flash page-over marketing, I noticed a picture which was hyperlinked with some JS but had no anchor, so I zoomed in and saw "powered by brainfingers technology"

4) I googled that phrase

5) stumbled upon the BAT website, turns out the the "NIA" OCZ had at CES 2007 was actually a cyberlink brainfinger model with OCZ stitched in to it.

6) Looked around a bit, found out that the software is the same for both.

7) THE CYBERLINK SDK = NIA SDK

8) also found out a good deal about the device.

so....

It looks like the NIA is a cyberlink but the sensors are not as high quality (cheaper) and therefore have fewer discernable levels of input (cheaper) (cyberlink is very detailed, the ocz nia has only 7 levels of intensity it can read).

The good news is: I found the SDK, now someone go download it before OCZ has it taken off the internetz.

Also: The compant is brain actuated technologies. OCZ seems to have intentionally namedthe device the NI ACTUATOR as to throw all searches on google that include "brain" and "actuate" and "Technology" point to news articles abotu "OCZ's brain mouse"

pretty slick.

This is some great information, I am just wondering, has anyone actually successfully used the Brainfingers SDK with the OCZ NIA? I am just deciding whether to purchase it or not. Any information would be greatly appreciated :-)
