WUT: Japanese Company Creates Brainwave Activated Animated Cat Ears For Your Head

Posted on May 5, 2011 by Rob Heath

They call it ‘Neroware.’ Here is the company’s description of the technology:

“Neurowear is the name of our project to develop fashion items and gadgets using brain waves and other biosensor with “Augumented Human Body” as the concept. Other than the first project “necomimi”, we are planning to development other various items.”

The concept of this technology is pretty cool, but would anyone actually use it aside from the core niche of furry cosplayers?

    Actually, those ears might be useful for those who are mentally ill and/or verbally challenged to convey their feelings easier.

    Then again, I do wonder about Japan’s fascination with cat ears.

    What would be interesting to see is an interaction between a cat and a person wearing those ears.
