Surely, they cannot expect to get the patent approved.
Classifying brain waves to control computer games has been
used for some time now as a treatment method in medicine.
Should be easy to scan through medical publications to find
that their patent lacks originality and throw it out.
They should be FINED for wasting patent office time!
But then again, we're dealing with the US Patent office...:(
It will probably be approved. Like the other Microsoft patents...
