Being able to read mind of others is a subject that interests many people, because they are shown as human beings are, without taboos and restrictions.
According to information published by the BBC , scientists from the University of California, Berkeley , they managed to decode the electrical activity brain to "listen" to what a person is thinking.
With this discovery, there is a great possibility of hearing the minds of patients affected by a paralysis or suffering from some disease cerebrovascular, and therefore can not communicate.
The researchers studied the region of brain responsible for the perception of sounds, at the moment when a person was listening to a normal conversation. During this process, through a computational model, they managed to reconstruct the words that the person was listening to.
The teacher Robert Knight , neuroscientist in charge of the study, pointed out that "... If we are able to eventually reconstruct an imagined conversation with the activity cerebral , thousands of people could benefit. "
To reach this conclusion, the specialists returned to a 2011 study, which specifies that by placing electrodes directly on the brain of patients, you can move a cursor on a screen just by thinking of vowel sounds. And you, would you like to know what others think?
