Abstract/Results: | Abstract: This pilot study explored the possibility of (a) mentally producing, at a geographical distance, predefined images on digital sensors within modern professional-grade photographic equipment, and with (b) sufficient resolution to be objectively verified via a Structural Similarity Index by specialized software for pattern recognition. Three participants, expert in distant ‘mind-matter interaction’ techniques, completed a total of 49 trials. In 6 out of 49 trials (12.2%), the Structural Similarity Index of the ‘target’ image, chosen by the participant for the distant mental influence trial on the camera’s sensor, was greater than that obtained when the target was different. These preliminary results suggest the possibility of using modern cameras to study the putative effects of distant ‘mind-matter’ interactions.
