Mind-reading technology being researched to foil terrorist attempts
DAYTON — Trying to spot terrorists by detecting their weapons has become an endless game of cat and mouse, says University of Dayton researcher Vijayan Asari.
But what if you could spot a terrorist by reading his mind? That sounds like science fiction, but Asari says technology exists for detecting brain wave patterns indicating a person is intent on doing harm.
“In every brain activity, there is a characteristic deviation in the brain wave pattern,” whether it’s a mental activity like doing math or spelling a word, or an emotion like jealousy or anger, he said. “It is just a matter of training a (detection) system to identify the long-term intentions” of those plotting violence.
