5. What is Mind reading computer ?
Drawing inspiration from psychology, computer vision & machine learning
has developed mind-reading machines computers.
Analyzes a person’s facial expressions in real time & infers that person’s
underlying mental state.
Software from Nevenvision identifies 24 feature points on the face and tracks
them in real time.
6. Why Mind reading computer ?
The mind-reading computer system presents
information about your mental state as easily
as a keyboard and mouse present text and
commands.
Current projects considering further inputs
such as body posture and gestures to improve
the inference.
To support on-line shopping and learning
systems.
7. To implement this
system in cars to
detect driver mental
states such as
drowsiness,
distraction and
anger.
8. How does it works ?
Futuristic Head Band:
The mind reading actually involves
measuring the volume and oxygen level
of the blood around the subjects brain,
using technology called functional
near-infrared spectroscopy(FNIRS).
11. Applications
Mind-reading computers could ‘save your life’.
Emergency.
Control robots by brain power.
Mind-Reading Technology Speeds Ahead.
The mind-reading computer that could communicate with coma
patients.
12. Advantages
Can read minds.
Help paralytic patients, Comma patients.
Help Handicapped people.
Help people who cant speak.
Can be used for military purposes & sting operations.
Can be combined with consoles & used for mind
gaming, robotics & stuff.
Eliminate the capability to lie.
13. Disadvantages
Breach in privacy.
Can extract, through an individual, an important, secure & confidential
information of individual, state or even a country.
If developed or used by sinners, can be highly dangerous.
Eavesdropping.
No way to neutralize this technology.
14. Conclusions
Users wear futuristic looking headbands to shine light on their foreheads,
and then perform a series of increasingly difficult tasks while the device
reads what parts of the brain are absorbing the light. That info is then
transferred to the computer, and from there the computer can adjust it’s
interface and functions to each individual.
