    That's pretty damn cool and disturbing at the same time.

    Cool. I wonder if they could "reverse" the process and find a way to "teach" the blind to see.

    Colorado Dolfan ...dirty drownin' man?

    Ever seen Strange Days? ;)

    Pretty amazing that they were able to do that, but, yeah, potentially disturbing as well.

    I have to seriously question the "image converted from brainwaves" with Steve Martin from the article.

    The article says "n one scene featuring comic actor Steve Martin in a white shirt, the computer reproduced his white torso and rough shape, but was unable to handle details of his face."

    That seems a far cry from the digitally blurred image that they claim is the "image converted from brainwaves."

    Is it just me, or is the women less fuzzy then Steve Martin? If so, this seems to work flawlessly!:wink2:

    Thing works great. I just tried it out, I was told to visualize L2G's favorite thing to have for lunch.
