Default headband

so i was watching tv about 3yrs ago and some dude in a wheelchair made a headband device that recorded his brainwave patterns which allowed him to move his electric chair, he also made a simple pong game using this method.
I havnt seen anything like this for ages on tv or otherwise.
whats happened has the military got hold of it or something?
Does anyone know about this guy?
