This year, one guy has already claimed that he hacked his Tesla Model S and controlled it with his mind. But this handsome man got burned and he was revealed - all his manipulations done with the car were a trick, because everything he showed in the video can be done using the application through the programming interface. Here we have a slightly different situation: a group of hackers reports that they managed to assemble a prototype of the device, thanks to which you can control the car literally with the power of thought. For those who want to know the details, they even more or less painted the process on .
The Teslapathic project, as the developers claim, was created during the 36-hour hacker competition in Berkeley. Four friends have long been inspired by the direction in which the automotive industry is developing, so they decided to take a feasible part in this, demonstrating their vision of the future of interfaces between the computer and the person, and at the same time praise their abilities. Considering that Casey Spencer, one of these guys, has long been involved in various hacks and investigations of his Tesla Model S, there has been no problem finding a car. They just took it and started experimenting once again.
Equipped with electric drives for the gas and brake pedals, the guys connected them to a controller that received signals from a special headset.
“My team wrote a machine learning program for a headset that captures brain signals and then translates commands into an analog signal and controls the mechanisms of driving through a radio channel. The machine can move forward and stop. A gyroscope mounted on the headset allows you to control the steering wheel, ”wrote Spencer in his profile on Reddit.
