Researchers exploring the world of neuroscience claim they have developed a new ‘matrix-style’ brain stimulator that can instantly improve an individual’s ability to learn new skills. Scientists believe that seeding knowledge directly into your brain, just like in the The Matrix movie, could soon take as much effort as falling asleep. In the film, Neo was able to learn kung fu in seconds after the martial art was ‘uploaded’ straight to his brain. The researchers at HRL Laboratories, LLC, have discovered that low-current electrical brain stimulation can modulate the learning of complex real-world skills. RT reports: The startling news comes from HRL Laboratories, which compared the new device to technology depicted in the movie “The Matrix” that showed highly advanced software instantly teaching the character Neo advanced martial arts. In this case, they sought to transfer the skills of a professional airplane pilot to those who did not know how to fly a plane. Published this month in the journal Frontiers of Human Neuroscience, the research found that “low-current electrical brain stimulation can modulate the learning of complex real-world skills.” Researchers led by Dr. Matthew Phillips analyzed the brain activity patterns of six commercial and military pilots. After mapping this [...]
