    Thought mapping machine

    I have my sources, came across various articles about it not publicly disclosed and I do believe in it.

    Actually whatever we think about gets visualized. You can't think about anything that doesn't have a visualization whether you are consciously aware of it or not and the visualization is reflected in our eyes. So it is easy to catch this visualization through the eyes.

    What do you all think about this? Is it really possible?

    I believe it's possible, and very much sure that current development has much more to see to be an useable system.

    Re: Thought mapping machine

    According to all (generally accepted) scientific information. The brain is simply firing (an incredibly complex) bursts of energy (often by chemical transmission), so a mapping should be theoretically possible. In fact some very preliminary work has been done and is used in nuerological diagnosis. From a practical standpoint, hard to tell.....but...

    In the 1980's "spies" from a certain country were found to park their vans loaded with electronic information outside buildings that were known to be running DEC VAX machines. They were able to completely monitor the execution of programs and capture the information

    In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice; in practice there is.

    through the eyes?....welll...it's easily possibly theoritically can be done to map it through the brain(although I still think this very hard to do...give me another 20 years or more) rather through the eyes...
