This is indeed very cyberpunk, but how in the world would it work? I can easily see a machine determine when someone is feeling emotion by measuring the activity of the brain and also which one by which part. Yet how would that translate to a given command?

Would be fun to see how this will affect people if they panic in a game. If it works though it will replace keyboards in the case of FPS tournaments.
