If you thought the U.S. military is working round the clock to get the scientists to invent new devices to assist in the warfare, you couldn’t possibly be wrong. The latest in the line of development is a helmet that may help in virtual telepathy. Though a scary thought, the U.S. defense is hell bent upon reading the thoughts of its soldiers.

However, the helmet will be ready only after many decades. Hence, the soldiers need not worry for the moment. And moreover, the idea is to enable the soldiers to communicate silently. But of course, we all know that things are not so simple and it could be used for dubious purposes.

However, anything in the name of science is development and we do agree to the fact that it is an uber-cool idea. However, one has to also use science in a responsible way and must interfere with a person’s thoughts, which according to me is a very private realm, which nobody must have access to.
