The video shows a pretty basic tongue-&gt;vision transformation, I don&#039;t know that I believe this is capable of &quot;vivid pictures&quot; given what I&#039;ve seen from that video.
Anyone should watch that video if they have the slightest interest in this.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>No, he&#8217;s not: <a

If y&#039;all thought this was a real product, there really is a sucker born every minute!</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You guys&#8230; this is just an example site for a web design company.

isPermaLink="false">http://www.yankodesign.com/?p=3918#comment-57634</guid> <description>I get the impression that one would need to first program one&#039;s brain in order for this *ahem* concept to work.. From the &quot;how it works&quot; page on the website it seams to be saying that your brain will decode the information sent by the device, which is done through stimulating your tongue, and will allow you to see images directly in your brain.
For an image to be seen I believe that you would first need to associate the stimulus with the image which could be done through a program included with the lollypop style usb device. One would connect the device to a computer running the software and spend what would likely be several hours programing or imprinting one&#039;s mind with relaxing imagery (for the relax flavor) which would be associated to different stimulus through the usb device.
Eventually one could perceivably expect that the stimulus alone would be able to bring up a remembered image within one&#039;s mind.
That being said there would be no reason to have different flavors of usb devices, just different programs for imprinting one&#039;s mind and some sort of selection device for choosing the stimulus to be delivered once the appropriate associations are possible.
An interesting concept which has merit but I like other posters do not believe that this is an actual product that currently exists (just check the website which suggests emailing the creators in order to place oneself on a wait-list for when the product is available. My guess, not anytime soon.)</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I get the impression that one would need to first program one&#8217;s brain in order for this *ahem* concept to work..
