Science, technology, and possibly a TED Talk have joined forces to create this truly incredible product. Here's a little bit more about the "MYO," as stated on their website:  

With the wave of your hand, MYO will transform how you interact with your digital world.

The MYO armband lets you use the electrical activity in your muscles to wirelessly control your computer, phone, and other favorite digital technologies.
