Luchia Dragosh Pre-Proposal of “Dream Catcher”

Project Title: Dream Catcher

Project Description:

This is a device that will record your dreams to a chip and transfer the waves into a data that will be readable. You turned it on the device before you go to bed and place it under your pillow. The waves from your brain will be recorder into the device’s chip. The data will be translated into a script with all the dialogue, description and sound effects that were in the dream.

Research:

UC Berkeley

Currently researchers at UC Berkeley have figured out how to extract what you’re picturing inside your head, and they can play it back on video.

Japanese scientists

We already know that with a scanner scientists can see from your brain the image that you just look at but Japanese scientists have created the first step toward a device that, by scanning people’s brains, could record people’s dreams and read their mind. The next step for researchers will be to study how to visualize images inside people’s minds that have not been presented before – a technology that could make it possible to record people’s dreams.

Princeton University

Researchers at Princeton University have figured out how to use functional MRI scans to tell what’s on your mind. They can’t yet tell exactly what you’re thinking about, but they can get close enough to distinguish whether you’re thinking about (say) an animal as opposed to a vegetable.

Benefits:

It will be beneficial to the exploration of ourselves and to may be reality that we never knew existed or to our past existences.

by exploring to power of our brain and pushing the limits to find new technologies, we will learn  new ways of communication without buttons and hard drives but with our brain.

We will be calling it a telepathy-communication or telepathetaion.
