A person's thoughts can be read using a sound card
Forty million sixteen thousand two hundred sixteen
Scientists observing how certain words does the human brain was able to create a sound card with which help it will be possible to translate the neural information in acoustic.
The researchers, uttering a special phrase, observed the reaction of their perception by the brain. Revealed that treat the different sounds of certain parts of the brain.
They react completely differently to expressions, words and sounds. And it is possible to observe the brain activity of a person.
A researcher from Columbia University, Nimes, Masharani
In a study conducted at the University of new York, was attended by the volunteers who delivered the diagnosis was "epilepsy" and for its treatment have already been implanted electrodes, which were located on the cortical surface. With their help, and managed to obtain data on neural activity.
Patients who participated in the experiment, offered to listen to hundreds of carefully selected phrases. The researchers at this time by means of electrodes, watching reacts to the brain. As expected, the upper temporal gyrus, which is responsible for processing sounds, was activated in the first place. Also managed to see that soglashaetsya and vowels acoustic information activated by quite different clusters of neurons, which was divided, in turn, small groups. Some plots are connected only when fricative pronunciation of consonants, such as C, while others reacted to the explosive, type "B".
In the future, scientists believe, watching the activity in the brain and having it sound card, you can be heard of the phrase to recover fully. It is not yet clear just how the brain manages, hearing the sounds, combine them into meaningful words and phrases. The science dealing with the study of neurons, is still in the beginning of the path to understanding this. It is possible that the study will be first step towards mind-reading
