Brain images by mind-reading software

Researchers from Kyoto have developed software that can read your mind and draw a picture of what you are watching. A picture released shows the subject looking at a word "neuron", computer analyzing brain activity with each letter and draws a conclusion of 10x10 pixel image.

Earlier
this year researchers from California had demonstrated a brain scan that can determine which image the test subject was looking at. As the technology improves, we may  be able to see sharper, color images of test subjects vision. A fascinating scenario presented by the article is videotaping one's dreams. Now that's what I call advancement! A perfect weapon for marital disputes, I can already hear the quarrels, "you were dreaming about HER last night weren't you, let's watch the video to proof you weren't !!!" Another less exciting option is to have to  sit through video's of you boring auntie's dreams, in addition to her holiday pictures starting from 1977.
