How long until mankind has the ability to move things with our minds?

Alright, so it's not telekinesis I'm talking about.

Japanese scientists are in the process of making or have made something that can detect certain patterns of brain thought. When a certain pattern is detected, it can be wired to do something else. Like, run a toy train.

Now, don't get too excited. From my vague reading through of the article, it seems that this is limited to vague types of brain thought. Such as "problem solving."

In other words, it can't be told to go whenever you think about what you did on Jevember 31.

Although, I could be wrong. Just read the article for the details.
