In the mid-90s I went to a large computer show at the CNE in Toronto. There were a lot of amazing developments exhibited.
One of the exhibits was a program in which you placed your hand in a receptor and guided a skier down a slope. Seemingly avoiding the hazards of the slope by your mind. Continuing practice made you more proficient. I was amazed by it's possibilities but never followed up on how it worked.
I imagine it was a combination of blood pressure and miniscule muscle contractions which determined the avatars actions.
Does anyone know about this and it's developments since then, or even a source for the company who made it ?

Now we'll see if the new "upgrade" accepts this. No time-out since I prewrote it and will paste it.

It did make a login request but then placed me on a post new thread page.

Edit: Hey it worked. More or less.
