Researchers develop mind-reading machine that knows what you are looking at

Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, have developed a way to extract visual stimuli from brain signals. A new computational model was created that uses functional MRI (fMRI) data to see what’s going on in an individual’s visual cortex - the part of their brain that processes visual stimuli.

So far, fMRI studies have only been able to decode basic information from the brain, using simple images in distinct categories such as faces or houses. Read more »
