Abstract

The most intelligent creatures on the earth are homosapiens since their brain is gifted with the ability of thinking and expressing emotions through different means. The human brain is a universe consisting of a cluster of neurons connected to each other. There are about 100 billion neurons in the human brain. Estimated that a neuron connection transmits at least one signal per second, and some theories proved that some of the specialized connections transmit up-to 10,000 signals per second [1]. Briefly, we can say that when we experience something through sense organs which are having direct contact with our brain, release some or other chemical called hormones. For instance, if we feel something ‘very good to our heart!’ or like start loving something by sensing anything, our brain produces a hormone called ‘oxytocin’. As there is an extraction of this hormone happens in a ‘Patterned’ manner from an import gland of our human body called as the pituitary gland, the pattern creates an electrical signal/impulse which transmitted to our brain in a fraction of seconds, making us experience the emotion called love on that particular object or person. The electrical impulse created here and transmitted to the brain is nothing but a thought/emotion signal. Our main aim is to extract a converted written text or an image of the electrical impulse created, this electrical impulse is extracted out from a human brain through EEG signals.
