(CNN)A patch of gold, just a few centimeters wide and light as a feather, could reveal your innermost thoughts and feelings.

This is the premise of Professor John Rogers' Biostamp. By attaching flexible, miniature sensors to the user's temple, he has been able to track brain waves in real time and transmit them as messages.

"Our prototypes can provide a variety of monitoring and stimulation functions," says materials scientist Rogers of the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign. "We can pick up coordinated firing of neurons, and run that activity through a computer spelling interface, so that brainwaves pick letters out of a virtual keyboard display and type messages."

That is the "in thing" in research right now. Using brain waves ( thoughts ) to operate machinery, such as electronic/powered wheelchairs, toys, etc.

Movie? There are several, 1st I know of was about soviet jet stolen by Clint Eastwood ( I read the book )

Consciousness, that annoying time between naps! :sleeping:

Kraftwerk was right in 1978. We are "The Robots":

 

We're charging our battery
And now we're full of energy

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

 

We're functioning automatic
And we are dancing mechanic

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

 

Ja tvoi sluga, Ja tvoi rabotnik
Ja tvoi sluga, Ja tvoi rabotnik

 

We are programmed just to do
Anything you want us to

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

 

We're functioning automatic
And we are dancing mechanic

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

 

Ja tvoi sluga, Ja tvoi rabotnik
Ja tvoi sluga, Ja tvoi rabotnik

 

We're functioning automatic
And we are dancing mechanic

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

 

We are programmed just to do
Anything you want us to

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

 

We are the robots, we are the robots
We are the robots, we are the robots

I remember reading a book many years ago called Day of the Cheetah that had a jet controlled by thought. I remember the story focused on the psychological effect of extending the minds control to a piece of machinery, eventually the pilot felt that the jet was an extension of himself.

The only mind and heart control I know which will be fulfilled will come through this one fact:  Rev. 17: 17 For God put it into their hearts to carry out his thought, yes, to carry out their one thought by giving their kingdom to the wild beast, until the words of God will have been accomplished.
