Remember these a few years ago?

Well some one is prototyping a heart rate controlled tail.

Soon the cyber-catgirl at cons will become a reality. Run. Run while you can.
Start here, read to the end of November.

When they joked about
I'll admit... I got scared.
QuoteI felt a great disturbance in the geekdom, as if millions of anime fans suddenly squealed in delight. I fear something kawaii has happened.
... pity that this is a
dog tail rather than a proper
cat tail though.
<-- Still waiting for proper cyberjack technology.
It'd be funny to see a cat wagging its tail when it gets excited.
Though frankly, it's a known behavior that dogs don't wag their tails if they don't have anyone to wag at or can't see them. It's not just a matter of being excited.
I actually saw a guy wearing those mind control cat ears last year at C2E2 working one of the booths... He looked kind of ridiculous. The device seems like an interesting idea, but it's not really designed very well...
Side note, for some reason reading the title of this thread, I for some reason thought it had something to do with the cat-girl invasions that would crop up on the main CoH forums years ago when CuppaJo would go on vacation for a few days... Ah, I miss the good 'ol days... :(
