Cognitive science
represents an awesome look into our future
New theories about functions of our brain are unfolding at increasingly rapid
intervals. Some experts believe a new understanding of the brain will lead to
the creation of truly intelligent machines. Others suggest far-out technologies
such as "Neural Virtual Reality”.
NVR takes existing virtual reality technology to the next level by pumping
virtual environments directly into the brain with neural implants. Transmitted
signals trick the brain into believing the body is actually participating in a
simulated experience. The implant tells the brain what the body is hearing and
how it should feel. With all sensory inputs provided by NVR, a sufficiently
realistic simulation is indistinguishable from reality, much like a dream.
Today, we cannot even conceive all the applications that this extreme technology
could provide. However, cognitive science promises a truly "magical future” for
all to enjoy.
