MIT scientists can hack your dreams by using smells and sounds





MIT scientists can hack your dreams by using smells and sounds

What if someone steals your dreams? Above this text is a film about the device, which can revolutionize neuroscience. The device can open the road to lightweight and cheap electromagnetic sensors, which can be used as easily as a wristwatch. 

That thing can be made at least partially because of MIT scientists have created the idea to get information about your dreams by using smells and sounds. The idea is that when a person sleeps the EEG-detectors would detect the changes in the neural actions and especially the changes in the electricity, which travels in the neural system. 

The problem with dream research has been that the systems, that are used are uncomfortable to use. Modern lightweight systems can communicate wirelessly by using WLAN or BlueTooth, and people can use them at own home. The system itself is like a bandanna or soft hat but it can also put on the wrist, and those systems are can wear so easily as a wristwatch. And it can be connected to mobile telephones, which sends the data to the internet. 

So the modern systems, what detects the EEG allows that person can turn and move freely, and they can be made by elastic materials, which are comfortable to use. So this kind of system can be used to detect also other neural electric actions, and they can be used also in everyday life, where the system can detect motoric neural impulses while the person is playing basketball or driving the car.  

Can we adjust dreams or manipulate them?

The question is, what somebody can do with the systems, which can create artificial dreams. If we would have that kind of system, we can adjust the interests of some people, or we can input data in their brains, and that allows the operators to create the bespoke scientists or some other operators. 

By using electromagnetic impulses, which are targeted to certain brain areas, researchers can send the data straight to brains, and that thing is called electromagnetic dreams. Those dreams are hallucinations, which are caused by electromagnetic stress in the nervous system. 

When we are thinking about lightweight systems, what can stimulate the nervous system, that thing can allow to cheating in exams by connecting brains straight to the internet, and this thing allows browse the net by using the virtual operating systems. That kind of remote-operating system exists, which can use EEG to communicate with computers, and those systems can install to the wrist, a bandanna, or it can put surgically to the brains. 

But how to hack dreams with a computer, what shows them on the screen?

The idea is like some science fiction movies. The computer would also detect the changes in the EEG when the person would see some images, and while the person is sleeping, that thing can compare the EEG of some images, with the EEG, what the brains of the person would send to the system. And then it can turn those electric curves to the images, what the observer sees on the screen. 

The EEG machines are the most lightweight systems, and they are also cheap, so those systems can give to a home. And the most important thing is that they don't need special medicals. The only thing that is needed is the EEG detector and application, which connects it to the telephone. So this kind of thing is giving the new data from the dreams, but that kind of system can also revolutionize the entire neural science, and open the road to the most fantastic and mysterious part of our life, the world, what is hidden from even ourselves.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core.

And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme.

The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
