Scientists have achieved the first human-to-human mind meld according to Reuters.

The experiment was a success after one researcher sent a brain signal through the Internet that allowed him to control the hand motion of another researcher sitting in another room.

 The two labs were set up at the University of Washington.

Researcher Rajesh Rao was in the first room wearing a headcap with electrodes attached to an electroencephalography machine, which reads electrical activity in the brain according to Reuters.

Rao then looked at a computer screen and played a video game without using his hands. At one point, he imagined he used his right hand to fire a cannon. The EEG electrodes were able to pick up the brain signals to fire the cannon and transmitted them to the second location set up across campus.

In the second lab, Andrea Stocco was wearing a purple swim cap with a device known as the transcranial magnetic stimulation coil that was placed over his left motor cortex, which controls the right hand's movement, according to Reuters.

Once the right hands signal arrived from Rao, Stocco "involuntarily" moved his right index finger to push the space bar on his keyboard to shoot the cannon.

Stocco described the feeling to that of a "nervous tic."

"It was both exciting and eerie to watch an imagined action from my brain get translated into actual action by another brain," Rao said.

The research has not yet been published in a scientific journal as of press time.

 The study was funded by the U.S. Army Research Office and other non-military federal agencies according to Reuters.
