On May 03, 2012, Motorola Mobility, a Google-owned company, filed to patent a tiny device that can detect a person’s thoughts via unvocalized words. According to the patent, those thoughts/words could then be sent out to control a mobile device.
Interestingly enough, this device is designed to be printed (like a tattoo) on to the person’s neck. Though such a device coming to fruition is a technological breakthrough, there are many out there who are not really excited about wearable tech that can be affixed right onto the human body and can transmit private words to a mobile device. Furthermore, there is some concern that such a device is owned by Google, who has been recently identified as a NSA cohort.
