Thread: Recording Our Dreams - Possible or Impossible?

Do you think it will be impossible or possible in the year 2030, over 20 years from now, we will be able to go online a purchase a dream recorder?

Or even be able to have expensive surgery so they can attach a wireless transmitter to our cerebral cortex or our eye nerves. Then the signal and properties are recorded and transmitted to our computer where is is analysed and then converted into a visual format? (just a basic example, lol)



Or will the need for a dream recorder be to little to warrant research and development into such an area?

Or will it stem from another more appropriate invention? (computerised vision for the blind - from a camera on the forehead connected to the appropriate nerve cells, etc).

I bet if someone invented a dream recorder today they would be instantaneous millionaires. Imagine all the self-made videos that would be posted on youtube? You wouldn't have to do anything anymore to create your own drama, or plot or script or special effects - or even pay the actors.

Except they might have to make it so it can record audio as well instead of just visual stimuli.

Imagine creating your own full-blown and limitless dream movie with a lucid dream.

Anyway, share you thoughts and discuss.
