This document discusses a mind reading system that uses functional near-infrared spectroscopy (FNIRS) to measure oxygen levels and blood flow around the brain. By wearing a headband, this allows the system to transmit light into head tissues and compare the results to MRI data to understand mental states based on facial expressions, head movements, and gestures. Potential applications of this mind reading technology include aiding paralyzed patients or astronauts, predicting bankruptcy, and facial recognition. While this could help disabled people, it also raises issues regarding privacy and criminal justice theories.
The team in the Computer Laboratory at the University of Cambridge has developed mind reading computers that implement a computational model of mind reading to infer mental states of people from their facial signals.
Using a digital video camera, the mind reading computer system analyzes a person’s underlying mental state, such as whether he/she is agreeing or disagreeing, interested or bored, thinking or confused.

What Should be the Christian View of Anime?Joe Muraguri
We will learn what Anime is and see what a Christian should consider before watching anime movies? We will also learn a little bit of Shintoism religion and hentai (the craze of internet pornography today).
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

3. INTRODUCTION
• People express their mental states ,including
emotions,thoughts and desires all through facial
expressions.
• HCI (Human Computer Interaction) is a computer
technology which focuses on the interface between
people and computer.
• Here we describes about a HCI system that
includes an enabler for controlling gadgets based
on signal analysis of brain activities transmitted
from enabler’s brain.
• The mental states expressed on the face are
combined with facial expressions and head
movements.
4. .....
One of the software of mind-reading
identifies twenty-four features of the face
and along with them, it tracks the facial
expressions with the real world time.
The combination of a movement and a
gesture like a smile helps in knowing the
mental states.
5. WHY MIND READING
COMPUTERS
The mind-reading computer system
presents data or information about the
mental state of the people easily.
Just imagine a future and we are
surrounded by all the devices, vehicles,
and internet services, people will know
our mood and react to us depending on
our mood
Here it will help to know mental state of
the person depending upon the body
postures and gestures.
6. WORKING OF THE
SYSTEM
The mind reading technology called Functional
Near Infrared Spectroscopy(FNIRS).
It is used to measure the amount of oxygen level
and blood around the brain of the person.
By wearing a headband it transmits the light into
tissues of the head.
The light is absorbed by the blood filled tissue and
activated tissues
The results are compared using an MRI.
9. APPLICATION OF MINDREADING
COMPUTER
By using the mind-reading system the bankruptcy
can be predicted.
Mind reading has its application in facial
recognition.
It knows what the eye can see.
Mind reading helps in converting thoughts into
speeches.
It also helps paralytic patients.
10. ADVANTAGES OF MIND
READING COMPUTER
It can be implemented on the wheelchair.
This will aid the spacewalking astronauts
and physically disabled people.
This type of system can send instructions to
the rover on the other planets and also aid
injured astronauts to control devices.
This can be availed to exchange
information on sly, people can avail them on
crowded buses without the problem of
being overheard.
11. DISADVANTAGES OF
MINDREADING COMPUTERS
Before implementing the systems the
scientist needs to train the systems
about all the patterns to predict the
result.
Because of this scientific
development, scholars are questioning
the theories of criminal justice of the
system
12. CONCLUSION
Mind reading is a promising tool for
teaching emotion recognition.
This mainly helps to dectected
peoples mind who are physically
parallelized.
This is a very useful technology now-a
–days.
