I’m not much of a Star Wars fan, I know its blasphemy in the geek world but I’m ok with that. However, this toy and the others like it are pretty bad ass. The Force Trainer is basically a ping pong ball in a vertical tube. The cool part is that by putting on a wireless headset that is basically a simplified EEG machine to your head you use your brain waves to activate a remote that sends air through the tube and raises the ball. The better you get and more focused you are you can even make it move up and down. It will retail for around $100. The coolest thing about this to me is that this is just the beginning. Mattel is coming out with a similar product this fall in which you use your brain to move a ball through an obstacle course. This stuff is fucking cool. And for you Star Wars types you get to “use the force”.

That is seriously awesome.
…although I wouldn’t want to pay $100 of my own money just to move a ping pong ball up and down. I’d love to try it out, though. If anybody here buys one, let me know and I’ll pay you a dollar to let me try it just once.

I wonder I’ll be able to remove all the ping pong balls out of my ass after I master the Force with that toy…
