is considerable sensitivity

as well

H. Walker a OBJECTIVE: (S) To determine feasibility of developing automatic equip- ment capable of producing remote viewing in hard copy form BACKGROUND: (S) Evidence exists that individuals can, through para- psychological means, acquire information in regard to remote targets. Extensive studies have been carried out at SRI International to establish the existence and utility of this "remote viewing" capability. In remote viewing a subject forms a mental “image" of the desired remote location. Hard Copy information is obtained by means of verbal description and sketches produced by the subject. The quality of this information would be greatly enhanced if an accurate replica of the mental image could be provided, or better yet, if the original image generated were formed in hard copy — as, for example, on a TV monitor. (U) Development of equipment having this capability might have the same utility in any future conflict as that of the Ultra machine used in WWII. (C) Some experimental data in the field of parapsychology indicates such equipment could be developed. The principal considerations that have been established are: theory (1) The same principles of information/used to enhance the signal to noise ratio in radio communications can be applied to para- tf psychological phenomena. AMISWA 119° 1978°,7 Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001100080003-0 NOT RELEASASLE TO FOREIGN NATIONA'
~ - Pa > Approved For Release 2 ese | BSROOTIONNBONNS-O oe ‘. (2) PK effects on physical devices used in computers to generate (true) random number sequences can be employed to produce physical records of parapsychological events rather than using a subject as one receiver. (The translation of PK effects on a random number generator into a target image automatically if the proper formating of information is used. This arises from the third principle of psi- phenomena given below). (3) Psi-phenomena are goal or target directed. This means that the subject does not need any knowledge as to how the target informa- tion or target image is produced, but must only be able to recognize the target state or image when it appears. (C) While these principles assure that remote viewing images can be formed in hard copy, sufficient information does not yet exist to establish the time required to produce an image. Estimates are computed in the attached report. PROCEDURE: The above principles have been use to design a device that if built is expected to have the hard copy capability sought. A separate report (attached) gives details of this device. Feasibility can most readily be determined using this equipment as it is flexible enough to be operated in a variety of modes. | (U) Funds FY 79 Equipment: $150K Personnel : $150K Miscellaneous: $ 50K $350K Msg 7 dul.7 CLASSIFIED oy (DAME-T8H) aS BE RevieW Ou. 31 Dec 199%.

PRINCIPAL
INVESTIGATOR:
E.
H.
Walker
OBJECTIVE:
(S)
To determine feasibility of developing automatic equip-
ment capable of producing remote viewing
in
hard copy form
BACKGROUND:
(S)
Evidence exists that
individuals
can,
through para-
psychological
means,
acquire
information
in
regard
to
remote
targets.
Extensive studies
have
been
carried out at
SRI
International
to
establish the existence
and utility of this
"remote viewing"
capability.
In
remote viewing
a
subject forms
a mental
"image"
of
the desired remote
location.
Hard Copy
information
is obtained
by means
of verbal
description
and
sketches
produced by the subject.
The quality
of this
information would
be greatly enhanced
if an accurate replica
of the mental
image could
be provided,
or better yet,
if the original
image generated were formed
in
hard copy — as,
for example,
on
a
TV
monitor.
(U)
Development of equipment
having this
capability might
have the
same utility
in any future conflict
as
that
of the Ultra
machine used
in
WWII.
(C)
Some experimental
data
in the field of parapsychology indicates
such equipment could
be developed.
The principal
considerations that
have
been
establ ished
are:
theory
(1)
The same principles
of information/used
to enhance
the
signal
to noise ratio
in
radio communications
can
be applied
to
para-
psychological
phenomena.

PK effects
on
physical
devices
used
in
computers
to
generate
(true)
random number sequences
can be employed
to produce
physical
records
of parapsychological
events
rather than
using
a
subject
as one receiver.
(The translation of PK effects
on
a random number
generator into
a target image automatically rf the proper formating of
information
is
used.
This
arises
from the third principle of psi-
phenomena
given
below).
(3)
Psi-phenomena are
goal
or target directed.
This means
that the subject does not need
any knowledge
as
to how the target informa-
tion or target
image
is
produced,
but must only
be able
to recognize
the target state or
image when
it
appears.
(C)
While these principles
assure
that
remote viewing
. images
can
be formed
in
hard
copy,
sufficient information does
not yet exist
to establish the
time
required
to produce
an
image.
Estimates
are
computed
in
the attached
report.
PROCEDURE:
The above principles
have been
use
to design
a device that
if built
is expected to
have the hard copy capability sought.
A separate
report
(attached)
gives details of this
device.
Feasibility
can most
readily be determined
using
this equipment
as
it
is
flexible enough

s Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-QQ788001 100100002-8 NOTE This piece may offer us excellent opportunity to bring in some other (than SRI) minds to work the problem. There is absolutely no reason to believe that the scientist, Hawke, might have manipulated the data/experiment. Might be a good idea to invite him to brief his work to the Science Monitoring Team when they visit California in late July 79. —— Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001100100002-8
