Mirror‚ but in reality someone is actually working on a not that perfect but similar device. Theodore Berger‚ a biomedical engineer at the University of Southern California is working on memory enhancement in a form of prosthesis‚ surgically implanted directly into the brain. The prosthesis can act like an artificial hippocampus by electrically simulating the brain in a specific way to build memories. Its aim is to convert short-term-memory into long-term-memory and just like hippocampus‚ to store it
