California Devised Mind Reading Device: An amazing mind reading device is developed at the University of California while its workings are discussed in the Journal of Neural Engineering.

  • Scientists at the University of California have devised “brain reading machine” that can recognize thought patterns and display them as a text on screen. You have to place the machine on the head of the person. This machine demonstrates real-time classification of sentences from neural signals. Electrodes are implanted in the brain and linked to a computer that translates electrical signals.

So far the machine performance has shown 90% of the accuracy and it works by interpreting the vowels and consonants in our brains.

What The Brain Reading Machine Can Do?

  • As per scientists, the machine can display words
  • This can be used to help people who cannot speak
  • Relief people who because of any illness are unable to communicate
  • It has the ability to serve as a platform for the proposed speech prosthetic device,” stated David Moses, the head of the study.
  • The machine can be used a ‘telepathic typewriter’. It can write down our thought and remove the whole effort used in typing assignments, texts, posts etc.
  • When we construct sentences in our brain, the device analyzes and registers the mixture of consonants and vowels and the machine then interprets these sentences based on neural signals and translates them into text.

Oops, It May Reveal Secrets!!

It may cause problems if it reveals secrets. Celebrity mind-reader Uri Geller said: “I can imagine circumstances where it may reveal some hugely embarrassing thoughts. This will strike fear into some people because we all have hidden secrets!”

In fact, Scientists claim that the machine can now be developed to work with all speech, and that it can even go on to use words that it has never heard before. Scientists believe that this machine can be used to create an easily operated machine that will be linked to smartphones in next 5 years.

On a lighter note, “What if President Trump could read the thoughts of cabinet members in a meeting”?
