According Dr. Dean Radin (University of Nevada) some scientists have proposed that psi-based communication and switching devices can be constructed. Most of the engineering design problems have been worked out and the same methods used to communicate with spacecraft millions of miles from earth would be useful in decoding and filtering weak, noisy signals that psi-based technologies may generate. Pattern recognition methods used in advanced sonar and radar systems would also be useful in psi-based systems since they can be trained to respond to individual thought-patterns at a distance (non-locally).

If such devices are developed, this might even allow thought control for use in prosthetics for paraplegics, the means to provide people with access to vast computer augmented memories, lightening fast abilities to do complicated mathematical calculations as well as to utilize supersensitive perceptions. It may even be possible to technologically develop enhanced and directed telepathic intercoms between people.

Devices based on presentiment could also be developed into novel early warning systems
that could monitor, define and translate our "presponses" to future events whose effects
are reflected backward in time. For example, imagine an aircraft in which each member of the flight crew or an on-board psychic air marshal are not only in telepathic communication with each other during an emergency but which can be connected via telemetry to an on-board system which continuously monitors heart rate, electrodermal activity, Breathing and even blood pressure and blood flow. Such monitors are commonly used by astronauts.

Before the crew boards the aircraft they would be calibrated to see how each responds
to different kinds of emotional (stressful) or calm events, using a method similar to other
presentiment experiments. Each person's idiosyncratic responses could be used to create
A unique, emotional response template. An on-board computer is then informed
of each person's response template, and using telemetry, it then monitors each crew member's ongoing bodily state to look for times when anyone seems to be having an emotional response.

One would expect to find a crew member occasionally producing responses that may actually reflect emotional states such as when a flight attendant is dealing with a rude passenger. AT other times such responses may appear to reflect emotional states but they are false alarms, such as when a flight attendent lifts a piece of luggage onto an overhead rack or accidentally spills a drink on a passenger. With proper programming a computer can learn to recognize and reject such false alarms. But what if the computer detects that suddenly EVERY member of the cabin crew is responding emotionally at the same time? This would not be a good sign. It is possible and unexpected turbulence could account for this but sensing that the computer could also reject this as a false alarm because it can be linked to other sensors on the aircraft to detect coincidences between sudden emotional responses and changes in aircraft performance or environment.

Imagine now that we have refined the presentiment-detection technique to the point where we can reliably anticipate when an emotional response is about to occur, before
The problem even exists. If our onboard computer suddenly detected that all crew members, cabin and cockpit, were about to have an emotional response and the aircraft was still operating normally, then the computer can signal the pilot (perhaps seconds or perhaps a minute or two in advance). Even a few seconds of warning could conceivably save the lives of everyone on board as well as to help preventing the events we have
recently endured. Companies such as SONY, Bell Labs, AT&T, NEC and others are quietly, and even secretly researching such technological advances.

I don't get it :confused: Are you saying that, in the case of a hijacker suddenly jumping up and producing a weapon, there'd be some way to 'predict' this from the crew members' forseen reaction?
I mean, if you can predict the passengers' response (including the potential hijacker), then I can see it. But, how would it be possible to forsee REACTION as opposed to a planned ACTION..?
And what would you be able to do with such info, anyway?

Actually Radin didnt say anything about precognating a hijacking though it's implied. Remember he wrote this in a book that was published in 1997....of course we have had plenty of hijackings before then but nothing like now. I reported what he wrote. The assumption is: yes, the collective emotions of the crew, when analyzed by a computer, might be programmed to forsee a hijacking. What one does about it is obvious: lock yourself in, set the plane on autopilot and lock it from ground control, set it down at the nearest airport after issuing a MayDay etc. ?? Again, Radin was not suggesting what one should or can do with the information, I think that's up to the security experts.....he was more concerned about positing a probable revolution in all forms of communication given the research being done by the big electronics firms in this area.
