Weird gadgets at the 2012 International Consumer Electronics Show

You can always count on seeing new and interesting gadgets each year at the International Consumer Electronics Show. Here's a look at some of the featured items this year:

Solowheel - The product's web site describes it as "the smallest, greenest, most convenient 'People Mover' ever invented. This gyro stabilized, electric unicycle is compact and fun to ride and is intended to be used as you would use an electric bicycle." It's basically a one-wheeled Segway.




Foam Fighters - These are tiny replicas of fighter planes that are made out of -- you guessed it -- foam. They attach to your iPad or iPhone for interactive flying fun!




Haier Brain Wave - Finally! A wireless, mind-reading headset to replace that clumsy TV remote! Well, you might want to hold onto that remote for awhile. This technology isn't quite yet ready for prime time.




Eye Asteroids - OK, mind-controlled video games are a bit far-fetched. Let's settle for something a little more realistic, like, say, "the first and only purely eye-controlled arcade game in the world."
