How To Control Others Mind By Telepathy

Imagine stepping into a room and catching the eye of someone inside. You commutation no words, yous give no smile. But somehow, you both know you're saying "hi." It'southward similar telepathy — your brains are in sync.

What if y'all were in India, and the other person in France? Would brain-to-encephalon communication still be possible?

According to research washed past scientists in Barcelona, Boston, and Strasbourg, the answer is yes. The study marked the starting time fourth dimension conscious thoughts were transmitted directly between individuals. Past recording the brain signals of i person in India with a computer organisation, converting them into electrical encephalon stimulations, and relaying them to recipients in France, the research team adult a noninvasive method of brain-to-brain communication. The transmitted messages were unproblematic greetings: "hola" in Spanish and "ciao" in Italian.

"This represented the showtime time a human knew what some other was thinking in such a straight way," said Giulio Ruffini, CEO of Starlab Barcelona and author of this study.

To achieve brain-to-encephalon communication, the team relied on a process called synaptic transmission. Chemical signals are transmitted between neurons through spaces called synapses, generating electric impulses in the receiving neurons. These impulses drive brain function for activities including motor skills and sensory perception. In the experiment, the non-invasive technologies electroencephalography (EEG) and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) were used as interfaces with neuronal synaptic signaling. EEG works with the sender of a bulletin: the technology uses a helmet-similar device with electrodes to tape electric activity from firing neurons in a participant's brain. And so, TMS takes this communication to the recipient: the technology electrically stimulates parts of the recipient'due south brain to produce impulses that can exist perceived.

On the sending side, otherwise known as the brain computer interface, researchers encoded the words on a computer in binary code. The computer cued 1 discipline in Thiruvananthapuram, India to call up about moving either his hands for transmission of ane or his feet for naught. Then, the subject's conscious thoughts were recorded by EEG, decoded by a computer equally a one or a aught, and emailed to researchers in Strasbourg, France.

At the recipient computer encephalon interface, the EEG signals received by email were converted for real time use in TMS. This stimulation was and then delivered to at to the lowest degree 3 subjects, all healthy and betwixt the ages of 28 and 50. TMS engineering science applied pulses to a recipient'southward correct occipital cortex, which process visual data. Then, with her vision darkened by a blindfold, the recipient was able to perceive flashes of light called phosphenes in her peripheral vision. For the binary signal one, TMS induced phosphenes, whereas for the binary signal zero, TMS was manipulated so that there were no visual signals. Finally, the recipients and the research team could decode the binary signals dorsum into the original words.

Some previous studies take also used electrical impulses in brain-to-brain contact, and researchers take demonstrated human-to-rat and rat-to-rat encephalon communication. In 2013, researchers at the University of Washington induced human being-to-human brain interfacing for the start time. One man playing a video game imagined pushing a push button, causing another man in a dissimilar room to subconsciously press the push. The results from this experiment suggest new research directions for noninvasive brain-to-encephalon communication, including the manual of emotions and feelings. "As we see it, brain-to-brain interfaces are full of possibilities…. Virtually of the earth-irresolute tech innovations in mankind were innovations of communication," said Andrea Stocco, i of the authors of the University of Washington paper.

Still, scientists who conduct encephalon-to-brain research warn the public not to interpret brain-to-brain communication every bit either telepathy or mind control. Telepathy implies the exchange of information without whatsoever of our sensory channels or physical interactions — nosotros ordinarily imagine people sending thoughts to each other through thin air. Scientists talk instead of hyperinteraction, or the transmission of information from ane brain to another using non-invasive merely withal concrete mechanisms.

Equally for mind control, Ruffini said he has no idea how we could begin to reach it. "There is no magic in our work. It is based on difficult-core scientific discipline and technology and mainly on Maxwell'southward equations," he said.

Despite what science fiction says, you cannot influence the minds of other people or substitution thoughts with them without both your senses and engineering. People might be 5,000 miles away or just a few steps across the room, but unless they agree to wear helmets and blindfolds, "hello" (or "hola" or "ciao") is simply a fantasy.
