The United States Army hopes to read the minds of its soldiers by monitoring brain activity and body responses
A new system designed to aid soldiers will use neuro-physiological sensors to help monitor the brain activity of U.S. Army personnel out in the field. Some of the things
measured and recorded include the heart rate and brain activity of the
soldiers. Once the data has been processed, the system will
hopefully influence what a soldier does in certain situations.
The
U.S. Army, Honeywell and the Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)
are working on the new wireless technology that will be integrated into
the Army's Future Force Warrior program.
