And this was announced in April this year:

In Japan scientists at the Honda Research Institute have unveiled the world's first brain to machine interface. Dubbed BMI short for Brain Machine Interface this new technology system will enable people to control robots using their mind.

Pushing buttons and fiddling with levers to control a robot could be a thing of the past. Honda's new system works using a brain activity measuring device that sends signals to their famous ASIMO humanoid robot.

As a user imagines moving a body part, sensors placed on the head measure and analyze the slight waves and blood flow changes in the brain. This allows the robot to make corresponding movements such as raising its arm or leg.

Honda hopes to incorporate the technology into a variety of human-friendly products in the future.

[Tatsuya Okube, Honda Research]: "As you know, we are, we are fundamental researchers so now we are, we are challenging to release some new technology. So unfortunately now we cannot expect when we can release BMI (Brain Machine Interface) as a product."

Japan is now home to almost half of the world's 800,000 industrial robots. This massive robot population is expected to turn into a 10 billion U.S. dollar industry in the future.

And let's not forget this, from last year:

Schools will soon have to ensure all pupils have access to brain-enhancing 'smart drugs', according to officially funded experts.

They said teachers risk claims of bias against poorer children if they fail to give all pupils the same chance to take a new generation of pills which boost attention, concentration and memory.

Researchers predict that within a generation, cognition enhancing drugs - or 'cogs' - will be so advanced that parents and teachers will be able to 'manipulate biology' to enhance pupils' brainpower.

But schools will have to address 'ethical issues about haves and have-nots', said the scientists led by Bristol University.

'If "cogs" are only available to those who can afford them, what does this mean for equality?' their report asked.

'It may be unethical to deny the chance for pupils to take advantage of such enhancements.

'Educators will at least need to know about what smart drugs are being taken by their pupils.

They may need to have a hand in deciding whether some pupils need to take such drugs.'

Schools may also need to hold drug tests to monitor and regulate the use of performance-enhancers, according to the researchers.

They were commissioned by Futurelab, a think-tank and charity funded by the Government to help shape the future of education.

The study depicts a brave new world, where pupils' DNA profiles would be stored on memory sticks.

Brain scanners would give staff real-time read-outs of pupils' thinking, allowing them to tailor lessons more effectively.

Our world is definitely getting stranger...

'smart drugs' okaaaaaay The toy is a gimick and so is the drug. . .when will man stop tampering with nature? smart drugs he better take one. . .make it more enticing by having haves and have nots. . implies rules he wants others to follow. . .like some kind of token system
