- As humans, we can perceive less than a ten-trillionth of all light waves. “Our experience of reality,” says neuroscientist David Eagleman, “is constrained by our biology.” He wants to change that. His research into our brain processes has led him to create new interfaces to take in previously unseen information about the world around us.

ROFL :D
Checking in from 2119. When he said "We can marry our technology," I smelled that.
underrated
Sometimes we can frick it too.
I felt it in my pp
C'mon guys get back in your own time, I'm getting jealous here with my 5 stock senses in 2019.

@@itsglby A tv show on Netflix
I was waiting for him to say
"Im actually deaf!"
Me too, I think audience would be speechless if it was the case!
😂😂
LOL
I thought he would say something like “In fact, under my skull I’m actually playing raid shadow legends with a tiny robot arm”
I was thinking that too....
I'm usually skeptical about these things, but this was presented so safely and responsibly that my BS radar never went off. Clear, responsible, fun, useful, and fucking interesting. Bravo.
J Ribs iiiioik
my BS radar kicked off, but because he was saying humans can't feel if they are health or not... you get plenty of inputs on your body's health, and not focusing on the more nice things we can do with additional senses is just sad.
True. Yet the little trick about the stock market made me cringe.
You could make an actual BS sensor with this...
the freaking future is gonna be so many levels of amazing!
Who’s watching this in 2021 and shocked they haven’t heard of this, or something like this product?
Same thing I was thinking. Also the bionic video from 2014
Yeah it's weird
Me.. Someone sent me this link via Whatsapp earlier.
I'm watching this in 2020 and I still didn't know it existed. As he pretty much said reality is how u perceive it.
My thoughts exactly!
360 degree vision? Visible ultraviolet or infrared waves? I feel like the power of this stuff is being underestimated
We already feel infrared. It's called heat. It's what you feel when you stand in the sun, our skin detects the infrared. Ultraviolet though could be very nice, skin cancer rates will plunge immediately!
The 'stuff' is there, its the brain that is the power! We are just not using it yet!
@@jammcguire1276 this reminds me of "humans only use 20% of their brain"
Sammysambo9 you can have 360 degree vision in lucid dreams.
Javier llaneza we can’t feel infrared at all, we can feel the marks it left in our body, that’s a very different thing.
Literally infrared means under red becouse the spectrum of electromagnetic waves humans can sense goes from red to violet. Ultraviolet, the opposite, means over violet
When you can understand what the itch on your back is saying
"I just wanted to go to france, mingeh"
*earth 2069*
That itch .. on your back .. It is saying " Scratch me " ... LOL ... sorry.. I simply COULD NOT resist ! ; >
Lol wow that sumeraize it
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Somebody put this technology in *car driver seats* to make them *feel* when a vehicle is in their *blind spot*.
I just drove an Equinox. It vibrates the seat when it predicts a collision is imminent without intervention.
Great idea! Some sense when a car is next to you in your blind spot maybe.
call up elon musk XD
My parents drive a car that has lights that indicate vehicles in the blind spot. I was thinking car seats could be set to relay other information, like the on-board diagnostics, or RPM's in a stick-shift, or GPS, or anything on the dash.
I think this would be a problem because people would learn to rely on the tech, and would get lazy, and not actually look.
Today I learned what an "umwelt" is. Thank you.

Best TED talk I've ever seen.
truest TED youtube comment that says "best TED talk i've seen"
'..ever seen.'
Wait for when you feel the audience, shape of the room, the temperature and smells.
This is definitely the next big leap in bio-mechanical evolution for humans. Well done. Absolutely fascinating.
Been a huge fan of Eagleman for some time now, this talk was conceptually incredible !
Years ago I read about this guy who expanded his Umwelt with a compass. Basically he'd wear a belt with vibrator motors, so that the one closest to magnetic north was constantly running (except when sleeping). Afterwards he said he'd acquired an intuitive and unerring sense of absolute direction and being almost completely unable to get lost outside. That was one of the coolest ideas I've ever encountered and apparently there now exists a company selling it, but as an anklet instead of a belt.
Apart from that, the idea of directly sensing data from vehicle sensors or a factory production line seem very exciting too. Think about how much safer cars could be if all drivers sensed on their skin all nearby objects around the car.
Hey, its 3 years later and they sell this vibrating back speaker vest on amazon. Theres a couple different brand names. Im only here trying to figure out whether or not this would work. It seems like this would convert like music and video game sounds into vibrations. But those are sounds we already can hear, wed just instead feel what he hear. So i dont think it would expand the umwelt because its not sending vibrations from frequencies we cant access, only ones we can. Maybe im wrong tho. Idk, anyways, you're the lucky guy i decided to ask lol
@@muhammadayyad9321 it does expand the umwelt of DEAF ppl, and I think that's the market they're targeting.
@@justsomeguywithsomemustard8168 we might not be talking about the same thing, what im talking about is targeted around videogames and music. I can buy my own tactile transducer for 50$ and do this myself, but im trying to gain as much info as possible befor making a purchase.
@@muhammadayyad9321 if you can hear just fine, and the purpose for the apparatus is to pick up sounds and transmitting signals to your brain, I suggest a headphone or a speaker.
If we're talking about a sensor that picking up sounds and translate it into vibration that u can feel in your skin tho, then yes it does expand the umwelt for deaf ppl (excluding you if you can hear just fine) and therefore I think u shouldn't buy it
you could plug in your vest into the car like the Na'vi plug in their braids into the animals
Huge thumbs up to this guy! I love how he not only introduced the topic so nicely, but kept it going in a more basic manner, rather than getting into high-tech data or theoretical work, Plus his practical approach just makes this even better. This also gives a slight insight into what all the unconscious part of our mind does without us knowing, which was quite surprising to see, as he explains that those vibrations were not being consciously monitored by the person to understand like a book or something, but just registered in the mind unconsciously, like walking.
Daniel Martins I am extremely skeptical about that claim, as he would need a way to tell what the crowd's emotion was in the first place before it could be transmitted. But otherwise, this guy is very fun to just listen to. Has that sense child-like wonder to him.
Daniel Martins Lol. That or the fact that he also has a degree in literature and is a renowned author of fiction, translated into 27 languages and lauded by publications like The Guardian and the New York Times. (Got it from his Wikipedia page.) The guy knows how to tell a story.
I hated it, when you already know how all those things you just want to get to the content, being told what you already know is extremely boring.
Honestly, I'm so glad he didnt get complicated. Props to this guy

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Best comment!
We don’t even need to decode or translate big chunk of data, in the future we just feel it and that’s it.
@@SuperDirtPig When we BELIEVE they are reality then we may be doomed. People keep getting the electronic experience closer and closer to reality, 4k tvs now look so realistic it can be hard to tell between a tv and a window if its set up right. The difference is that people KNOW that the tv is not real, its when people start tricking themselves into believing the tv IS reality that we may start having problems. On the other hand this may not even be an issue as it may simply open the door for our reality itself expanding to far more than what we ever knew it could be.
I just realised that the vibrations in my controller have been adding to my sensory experience for years and I've learnt to feel the game world.
The only TED talk worth talking about. Love ya and your lab, David, you're the man.
TED 2015: uploads video
TH-cam 2019 let’s put this in a few 700 or 800thousand peoples recommended
i really want this to get big, though!
predicting a probable market innovation in this field
Yeah... Well, there's plenty of hype for cyberpunk right now... So there is a pattern
we are finally ready
Yes
I bet if we had a vest to feel the air pressure, temperature etc. we'd quickly learn to predict weather patterns.
Love your idea!
Or you can use your nose
We've hade a vest to feel temperature for eons!
No. Google the level of computation and data required for prediction of weather
Well, it's like the level of computation and data required for a self-driving car. Oodles of data and we still are testing basic functionality in a self-drive car.
The problem in trying to predict weather with a computer is that the processor is very primitive. Many people ARE able to predict the weather quite well with even the five senses that we already have. It's our brain which is the "secret sauce".
Imagine what people could do with being able to sense atmospheric data continuously, and building a sense of what rain felt like over time, to the point that they could understand how it builds up.
We all are here from TH-cam recommendation .
Thank you TH-cam suggesting me this video
More absolute GENIUS at a TED talk
This technology is fucking amazing, I mean... what could be a better catalyst for the next huge leap in human technological ability than an expansion of human perception?
The technological singularity?
ahoyhoy1 It has already begun.
ahoyhoy1 Wouldn't this be apart of the singularity? Cause you know it would actually be apart of the neo-human/neoman being.
ahoyhoy1 Not really. If you follow all the technological developments in the area of artificial (general) intelligence then we are still in the infancy. AGI is still at the bee or cockroach level i.e. level 1. The vest that you saw is no big deal. It is merely fetching the data and feeding it to the actuators. Most can make that at home with little knowledge of electronics and software programming.
GearZNet I view it as a Transhuman is a surfer on the edge of the event horizon of the technological singularity.
Wow, the implications of this are Huge!
unrealistically huge! This can completely change our society, the way we live, interact, ... kind of going from watching sci-fi movies to living in them
Living in the future is fun.
MsMilkytheclown1 Yes!
MsMilkytheclown1 applications?
@@lokmandz4548 "...kind of going from watching sci-fi movies to living in them" - We are "living in sci-fi" already. Look around! ;) It will be "the new normal" just like a cell phone without buttons...! That's impossible (for my grandma's mother). jaja :)
I am halfway through this video and I must say, I was 5 years too late to get to this video, thanks to Mr. Eagleman for sharing such wonderful information! this has opened my mind to what could be imagined by the human mind, if given enough strength it can experience the unexperienceable! just amazing!
Actually I wanted to add something here, I don't really think that it is a creation of new senses, but rather the enhancement of the existing ones. 360 degree vision, being able to see ultraviolet radiation etc. seem like extension to present sense of sight as in the enhancement of human field of vision, and being able to see more colours or more than colors (depends how seeing something beyond visual spectrum would look like). And even the vest seems like a device to help solve problems which were/are heavily relying upon eyes. so this vest is more like a use of touch, not expansion of it. Apart from these things to say, I liked the overall idea pretty much. It is helpful for people who are in a way deprived of the 5 senses. Kudos to this team.
This is the future i would like to have, best ted talk i have ever watched
A vest that allowed you to feel other cars around yours would probably reduce traffic accidents considerably. Somebody fund this man!
It might... But reaction time might be a problem
main problem will always be willingness to use it, People almost never see themselves as the problem, and will put themselves in harms way if they feel they are in control. They wont spend money on anything extra except rare cases. Even the seatbelt and airbag faced huge pushbacks from the general public and werent accepted as a must until long after
er, did you just suggest to fund a billionare?
put it into the car seat
but with that experience of new sense .. you have to learn it again... its your brain ready to proccess a lot of incoming data n reacting as fast as you can
I really like David Eagleman. Besides the fact that he's highly intelligent, he has a very open mind. Which is something we need more of in modern science. If you enjoyed this I recommend you watch the video of his conversation with Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev. It's very interesting!
The more I know and learn, the more I come to understand everything... it’s that feeling you get, that signal, that vibe(ration), the frequency. And it all comes down to perception and interpretation... and also what you are willing to accept.
My Theory of Knowledge teacher (hello fellow IB students) has shown us this today in class, and it really intrested me. Mind-blowing how we can extend our senses so much. Also the guy really impresses me! You can see he knows what he is talking about
After watching some of the greatest TED talks I didn't expect this one to be this good.
Best talk ever in technology.
Humans can do this without technology. Yet humans want to find short cuts rather than work with what we were born to do... Seems technology is making humans go backwards
@@kellydickson896 wth
Crosspollination of technology and neuroscience is revelatory
That technology will kill us
This is incredible. I've heard of stuff like this, but never paid much attention. The way this was presented is just amazing.
Oh you only heard about it? I smelled it a year ago.
Joking aside, it's amazing. I wonder how far they have gotten by now.
You mean simply
the applications of such a project is just outstanding and the idea he planted in us that there is no limit to our sensory is just insane
this is one of the best TED talks I have ever watched.
I love the question from the moderator at the end, because I was thinking the same thing... Don't we have specific cortices dedicated to specific senses? Eagleman's answer helped me to understand. As I interpret it, the "visual cortex" isn't a hard-defined region, rather it is the area to which visual signals from the retina are sent, to be later processed throughout. There's no "special neurons" there, just the same as everywhere else, but it just happens that this area collects visual stimuli.
There's some senses that I would love to have, which wouldn't be too difficult to augment through gadgets: blood glucose, hormone levels, plasma cortisol, plasma adenosine, etc
Imagine being able to pull apart the factors that are making you miserable, or happy, in a direct way. Imagine being able to estimate your stress level, your tiredness, your fullness, with the same accuracy that you estimate how hot a room is? You could train this sense for years through conscious attention and meditation, or with a simple device you could get immediate access to these senses, at a higher resolution.
"Your senses limit your reality " I believe in that
like this amazing show
I'd say a lot of his talk was proving just the opposite. We understand not to touch the stove because we can comprehend its hot. We can imagine the heat but we don't have the right tools yet to see ir. Our Umwelt is begging for the direct input.
Dude..... Imagine tripping with a large amount of extra sensory information o.0
you would probably experience a completely new reality
Trippin is a huge amount of extra sensory information
What Jose Luis said is true. Trippin is a huge amount of extra sensory information. But what about trippin with NEW sensory information, not extra ;)
imagine feeling the sensory information, after getting completely used to it, of someone who /is/ tripping
now that's what am talkin' about !!

Dear, I like the way you analyzed or explained all this............JAZAKALLAH.
Looks like we all are here to discover, discover ourselves(with one way or the other) and that is our ultimate goal, to realize the ultimate REALITY.
I rose to applaud as the audience did, this is so mindblowingly great stuff! Wow!
This research in conjunction with psychedelics\consciousness experience studies and abilities can be the next improvement in human perception and communication. To construct a better language that allows for a more accurate representation of the formulated ideas would be an incredible expansion on understanding and evolution. This in change could lead in my opinion to a more peaceful and collective in their ambitions.
I would so love a philosophical analysis of this type of tech.
Feel free to do one!
I just might! It's fascinating.
I know. What I mean is that I'd like to see it revisited after this is released. It changes everything and gives empirical data.
I have one. Becoming god. If we can form and shape reality any way we want. The only limitation is your creativity and being connected to other humans, or even other life forms. You could theoretically become one with the universe. Experience the big bang, understand the creation of reality. We already create our own universes (video games) with rules and physics This is just pushing it further than I ever imagined we would be able to with current technology. Definite proof of what god is, explain it and even experience it. This is the holy grail to stop wars and fighting, when we can truly understand each other. Coming this far already shows the power of cooperation.
SimplyMayaBeauty This is us entering hypermodernity!
definitely the most underrated video out there.
This was indeed a mind-blowing - and mind-expanding - talk. It's got me thinking of so many possibilities right now.

*I'm shocked that such a vest could work that well in only 4 days*, I would never have predicted that. It would be really, really interesting to see the limitations of the technology, can the vest ultimately allow the patient to enjoy music for example ? I really wish the talk had been done a month later to learn more about this, 4 days is very short. I also wish the first 10 minutes of the talk hadn't been very basic explanations on the brain and sensory input, but waiting really paid off, great talk.
This is amazing, it makes good use of our subconscious brain power.
I feel like watching a futuristic science fantasy movie where this tech is well developed and wide spread. It would be an interesting sight. :D
Anyway, it's about time humans burst out of their biological comfort zone.
"We" have been for eons, in the form of sharmen and mystics, who told us "we are already complete, and we have to develop our consciousness of ourselves (commonly known as "Know Thyself").
I hope we can fix our political issues that damage ourselfs then we see a new reality.
eversince i saw this video a cant stop imagining how we could use this, like in 3d software, gaming, driving etc. very awesome!
This is by far one of the most incredible discoveries about the human body.

Common knowledge tells us that kids learn faster and adults experience difficulty in leaning new skills. According to me it would be best to put on this vest on the kids and see the benefits when they grow up.
We could also put more oxygen into the atmosphere resulting in better athletic performances (or more carbon to enhance our animal comforts).

Super rad Ted! I want one of the suites.
Just WOW... Really 'mind blowing' Talk... After a long time I saw something this amazing... As he mentioned... This could be truly game changer... Very nicely explained too... I can't think of any argument on this... My bet is - This will definitely be the future...
This also means that... You can train people with certain kind of sensory from very early age and make/train them becoming expert... For example: get your kid the right sensors to sense 'airplane cockpit data' from early age - he will be trained for long enough and he/she will be much better pilot...
It's GOTTA light up, because Star Trek.
I love how Geordi explained his ability to filter the visual input: it's the same way as when you select one specific sound in a noisy room.
The topic has also reminded me of Asimov's "The Secret Sense", where the sense itself is the ability to feel magnetic fields.
This was mesmerizing!!
Thank you for saying we have not *evolved* into that kind of understanding yet!
I'll bet this guy always wanted to play an Elf in Dungeons & Dragons.

Hook up with Elon, he's doing Neuralink
Elon is better lol
Oh, please stop hyping Elon up. The only thing he revolutionized was payment with Paypal. All his other companies produce literally useless products.
Exactly my thought. What if instead of physically stimulating the body to add a new sense, you just stimulated your nerves directly?! You would no longer be constrained the what you can strap onto yourself.
@Okay Tyler Tesla cars aren't better for the environment, spaceX rockets aren't getter than regular rockets, tunnels made by the boring company aren't cheaper than "normal" tunnels and Hyperloop is just a massive joke.
I dont dislike Elon, but I hate the cult that has formed around him, praising him for everything he does. Yea, he is a hard working business man and yea, he has a lot of success. But he is no genius scientist. I would even say he sint even a particular good one.
All his success is generated through the hype.
Most of the time he just brags about what he will do, because he knows that if he keeps promising more absurd stuff, people will forget, that spaceX is still unable to bring more than satellites into space.
Heinrich mir grauts vor dir Heinrich mir grauts vor dir You can feel however you want about Elon himself, but here at the facts:
1. It is debatable weather or not Teslas are better for the environment when it comes to carbon emissions. It largely depends on how the local grid is powered. In most cases, it is better for the environment. Regardless, we need to switch to electric cars and over time they will be come better for the environment as we switch the grid to clean energy. However, the main purpose of Tesla is to switch over to sustainable energy, not to be environmentally friendly energy. Eventually we will run out of gasoline.
2. SpaceX rockets are better than every other rocket in pretty much every way. They are cheaper to manufacture, they are very reliable, they are more efficient and they are the only *orbital class* rockets that land back on earth and car be reused. If that’s not better, I don’t know what is.
3. I don’t know exactly what the cost per mile of The Boring Company’s tunnels are, but obviously the goal is to make them as cheap as possible. However, being cheap isn’t the *main* goal of the boring company. The main goal is to bore tunnels *fast*. The Boring Company is still a very new company so we’ll see what happens over time. I also have had my skepticism of hyper loop, but again, we’ll see.
4. SpaceX doesn’t more launches per year than any other company or *government* in the world right now.
I don’t know what your background is but from a nontechnical perspective, I could see where you are coming from. From the outside it doesn’t look like Elon is doing anything particularly amazing. But, for me, seeing the history of these industries and looking deep into technology of these companies make me realize how amazing these accomplishments are.
