Scientists in Australia have announced new technology that can read your mind, or at least let you control devices by just thinking about it. The Australian Army recently demonstrated the tech by operating a four-legged robot using just mind control, and they say it was 94% accurate during the testing.

How does it work? Sensors inside a head-mounted “augmented reality” device show white squares to the user, and when they concentrate on a specific square their brainwaves are translated into commands for the robot. Researchers say the futuristic tech could be used by people with disabilities to control wheelchairs or prosthetics with just their minds.
