Physics Today : Multiple new gadgets are on display today through 9 January at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. New Scientist highlights a thought-controlled iPad app by InteraXon, in which headphones equipped with a pair of sensors use electrical signals from the brain to control movement in the iPad game Zenbound. The Daily Mail discusses the many iPad clones that are being unveiled this week at the CES; among them, the Eee Pad Transformer, which initially looks like a laptop but can split in two to function as a tablet. Another Daily Mail article details a new voice-activated car stereo, the Parrot Asteroid, which not only plays what the user tells it to but also can download apps. And TechNewsDaily highlights a computerized telescope, Sky Prodigy, which automatically focuses on stars and other celestial bodies.
