A pair of savvy tech developers created an application that lets users' utilize their thoughts to make phone calls on the iPhone 4S.
The application takes the iPhone 4S and makes it collect brain wave patterns from some simple ECG pads. The brain patterns are then translated into synthesized speech audio.
The audio can be heard through the iPhone 4S's 3.5-mm headphone jack. The voice control-enabled command app works with the application successfully.
