Japanese researchers made a breakthrough in Dream Recording Technology. Led by Professor Yukiyasu Kamitani, the Kyoto-based team developed a revolutionary device using brain imaging and AI. This technology uses fMRI to capture neural activity during dreams. Volunteers’ brain activity is monitored during early sleep stages. When they enter REM sleep, they’re awakened and asked about their dreams. By analyzing brain scans and building a database, scientists achieved 60% accuracy in predicting dream content. Notably, accuracy increased to over 70% for visual elements. “We revealed dream content from brain activity,” Professor Kamitani explained. This advancement in Dream Recording Technology has vast…
