Researchers have developed a technique that can produce a digital image of what a person is picturing in their mind, simply by reading the electrical activity of their brain.

They compared the brain activity the volunteers showed during light sleep to what they exhibited on being shown images of common things, like cars or streets, while awake.

There is evidence that reading to young children is in fact associated with differences in brain activity supporting early reading skills.

A new technique developed by neuroscientists can reconstruct images of what people perceive based on their brain activity gathered by EEG.
