Unveiling the Secrets of the Brain: Exploring Visual Processing and Subliminal Perception

The video discusses MRI scanning techniques to understand how the brain registers information, focusing on the visual cortex. It reveals that the brain can register images subliminally. Researchers can identify which image a volunteer is viewing by analyzing brain activity patterns. This research has implications for brain-computer interfaces, potentially aiding disabled individuals by enabling brain control of computers or artificial limbs. The video highlights the active early processing stages of the brain.
