INTRODUCTION
People express their mental states including thoughts and desire through their facial expressions and gestures.
The goal in building mind reading machines is to enable computer technologies to understand and react to people’s emotion and mental states.
WHAT IS MIND READING
People mind read or attribute mental states to others all the time, effortlessly and mostly subconsciously.
Mind reading allows us to make sense of other people’s behaviour, predict what they might do next, how they might feel and use this knowledge to guide our own actions.
DISADVANTAGES AND PROBLEMS
Breach to privacy.
Extracting from an individual important, secure and confidential information.
Can be misused by hackers.
Using function magnetic resonance imaging, only 70% accuracy.
Individual brain differs, studying different patterns and training the computer to identify pattern is difficult.
CONCLUSION
Tufts university have begun 3 year project, if successful will allow computer’s to respond to user’s brain activity.
If 100% accuracy is achieved these computer may find application in the field of electronic where we have less time to react.
