A Perceptual Channel for Information Transfer over Kilometer Distances: Historical Perspective and Recent Research. Proceedings

Abstract: For more than 100 years, scientists
have attempted to determine the truth or falsity of claims for the existence of a perceptual channel whereby certain individuals
are able to perceive and describe remote data not presented to any known sense. This paper presents an outline of the history
of scientific inquiry into such so-called paranormal perception and surveys the current state of the art in parapsychological
research in the United States and abroad. The nature of this perceptual channel is examined in a series of experiments carried
out in the Electronics and Bioengineering Laboratory of Stanford Research Institute. The perceptual modality most extensively
investigated is the ability of experimental subjects and inexperienced volunteers to view, by innate mental processes, remote
geographical or technical targets including buildings, roads, and laboratory aparatus. The accumulated data indicate that
the phenomenon is not a sensitive function of distance and Faraday cage shielding does not in any apparent way degrade the
quality and accuracy of perception. On the basis of this research, some areas of physics are suggested from which a description
or explanation of the phenomenon could be forthcoming.
