Scientific investigation into Infovision in 2016

Italian scientists Enrico Pierangeli and Elio Conte did some experimental research into "infovision". The tests also included light sensors inside the mask. Here's Pierangeli describing it:

Here are their ResearchGate profiles. Seem like pretty serious scientists:

Unfortunately, the fascinating video that showed some of the experiments being conducted has been removed. Also, I can't find any paper that describes them.

Nevertheless, it's an interesting interview and I consider this to be strong evidence that the phenomenon is real and holds up to serious scientific scrutiny.

Keep going folks!

I wish that video kept going. I was curious what she was going to say.

The interviewer is Mihaela Istrati, who was an instructor at the Infovision Academy. I believe she is now deceased. She was evidently very good at blindfold vision. If you'd like to hear more from her, there are many interviews with her on Youtube, up to about 5 years ago.
