The measurement system for the study of precognition was designed to replicate the research of Professor Daryl J. Bem, who published a scientific paper in 2011 at Cornell University entitled "Feeling the Future." The results of his research showed that people can predict an event in the future in 53% of cases.
Since the concept goes beyond the traditional understanding of human behavior, I decided to develop a measurement system to redo this research. The measurement system consisted of a screen, software for identifying images from IAPS, a mouse with a built-in EDA microcontroller. I designed the system using JS, HTML and C++ programming environments and integrated it with the ŠvicMiš device. The measurement system works like a quiz whereby measuring volunteers, I took the first step towards producing comparable results, achieving a percentage of just under 55% correct prediction of events. It is important to emphasize that the number of measurements was too small to say with certainty that I achieved the same results as in the original research.
