Scientists claimed that a device which reads the thoughts of brain-damaged patients could become a reality, the Daily Telegraph reported.

Researchers proved that they could tell what someone was hearing by decoding brain waves.

Researchers demonstrated that the brain breaks down words into complex patterns of decodable electrical activity. The study was published in the Public Library of Sciences Biology journal.

Prof Robert Knight, one of the researchers from the University of California, said: "If you could eventually reconstruct imagined conversations from brain activity, thousands of people could benefit." （點擊《每日電訊報》查看原文）

讀心設備或問世

???????據英國《每日電訊報》報道，科學家表示，一種設備有望讀懂腦部受傷病人的想法。

???????實驗證明，別人能聽到的內容，研究人員通過腦電波解碼也可以知曉。

???????科學家稱，大腦可以將文字轉化為復雜但可破解的電活動。這項研究發表在《公共科學圖書館》雜志上。

???????來自加州大學的羅伯特·奈特教授表示：“假如最終能通過大腦活動重現某人想表達的內容，將有很多病人受益。”
