The company «Neurobiotics» from Zelenograd has developed a technology that allows controlling the Geoskan Pioneer Mini drone with the power of thought. This was reported by the company's press service.

It's noted that the control of the drone has become possible thanks to the NeuroPlay interface. The programmers shared on Github a Python-written script that connects with the Pioneer Mini and creates an HTTP-server, which is connected to the NeuroPlayPro application.
Controlling happens as follows: The operator puts on a head optoritmograph device that records mental processes. As explained by Geoskan, to take off the drone, the operator has to «concentrate»: thinking about the drone gaining height and saying «Up!». As the operator relaxes, Pioneer Mini begins to descend.
Pioneer Mini drone from Geoskan is a quadcopter, designed for robotics classes. The device was developed in the framework of the STEM-education concept (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics - a model that combines the natural sciences and engineering - ed. note www1.ru). Pioneer Mini can perform autonomous flight indoors, according to the parameters set in the program.
Earlier it was reported that Whoosh service successfully tested the possibility of controlling a scooter using a Neiry headband. The scooter control technology was implemented by Russian developers.
