Targ Stanford Research Institute, Menlo Park, California 94025 ABSTRACT For the past five years we have been in- wostigating aspects of human perception that appear to fall outside the range of well-under~ stood perceptual/processing capabilities, Of particular interest is a human information-~ accessing capability that we call "remote sens-~ ing.'' This phenomenon pertains to the ability of certain individuals to access and describe, by …

We often observe essentially correct descriptions of basic clements and patterns coupled with incom- plete or erroneous analysis of function, This theme emerged as a thread which continued throughout our work and eventually led to a breakthrough wit…
