Forget about robots rising up against humans for world domination. In the future we're all going to be robot-human hybrids with the help of wearable computers. We've already seen Google Glass, the search giant's augmented-reality glasses.
Now the latest Y Combinator startup to come out of stealth, Thalmic Labs, is giving us a wrist cuff that will one day control computers, smartphones, gaming consoles, and remote-control devices with simple hand gestures. The armband is called MYO and will cost $149. It detects motion and muscle movements to allow control of a Mac, PC, or other device using gestures.
