MIT's Technology Review is running a piece on devices which seek to remotely control human movement and perception via stimulation of the vestibular system. This basically makes the person feel like they're falling in one direction, so they correct and go the other way. These experiments are being done under the auspices of correcting "balance disorders". See the video here.
