``` Silent Talk (U) Silent Talk will allow user-to-user communication on the battlefield without the use of vocalized speech through analysis of neural signals. The brain generates word-specific signals prior to sending electrical impulses to the vocal cords. These signals of “intended speech” will be analyzed and translated into distinct words, allowing covert person-to-person communication. This program has three major goals: a) to attempt to identify electroencephalography patterns unique to individual words, b) ensure that those patterns are generalizable across users in order to prevent extensive device training, and c) construct a fieldable pre-prototype that would decode the signal and transmit over a limited range. ``` https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fiscal_Year_2010_DAR...
``` The preceding sections document that an audible sound originates from within the head when human subjects are exposed to pulsed microwave radiation. The auditory detection of pulsed microwaves in laboratory animals has been confirmed both in behavioral and neurophysiological studies. The site of microwave-to-sound conversion is shown to be in the brain tissue. The primary mechanism of interaction is microwave pulse-induced thermoelastic expansion of brain matter. ```
``` The envisioned application is radiomyography which aims to detect muscular activity by the means of electromagnetic waves coupled into the human body. The paper concludes that it is possible to detect changes in the thickness and the properties of the muscle solely by evaluating the reflection coefficient of an antenna structure. The ability to detect these changes strongly depends on the antenna type. ```
Thanks for a link!
``` Unvoiced or silent speech recognition recognizes speech by observing the EMG activity of muscles associated with speech. It is targeted for use in noisy environments, and may be helpful for people without vocal cords, with aphasia, with dysphonia, and more. ```
radiomyography ~= form of electromyography
Yeah fair enough I suppose. To be honest, what you’ve expressed resembles schizophrenia very closely. How are sure that the voices aren’t externalizations of yourself, or processes taking place within you?
No and I’m not trying to diagnose you or something. You brought it up so I felt I should be honest based on what little I know about the condition. Take it with a grain of salt.
>I can tell you anecdotes of hearing never before heard person names and couple days later stumbling upon them (usually watching shows I routinely watch)
If you routinely watch the show, maybe it came up earlier and you forgot?
>point is - this is not my burden and shouldn't be.
See I get what you mean. I’m not trying to say it’s your responsibility or something. I just don’t think you should have to put up with shit that bothers you all the time, and were I correct that it’s some known medical condition, it might be much easier to make it stop than if it’s a massive organized group trying to manipulate you. Do you lose anything giving the medical thing a shot?
