Six new technologies that will shape PC gaming's future -- or not.

1UP writes: "For every winner of an American Inventor season, a couple hundred would-be Thomas Edisons go home losers. For every Nintendo Wii, there are 1,000 Nintendo Virtual Boys. There's no shortage of new technology in the world -- but the ratio of brilliant ideas to worthless crap is decidedly out of whack.
And so we present for your consideration six emerging technologies that might change the way you play PC games in the future. Or may not. From brain-wave scanning to pupil tracking to peripherals that simulate a Serengeti breeze, these devices -- some prototypes, some real products you can buy today -- are nothing if not creative. And their creators are hoping you'll want to play with them every day."
