  Cognotechnology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Cognotechnology is an emerging field that is technology applied to the cognitive domain, and is the result of a convergence of nanotechnology, biotechnology and information technology, according to, vice president and principal scientist at Sandia National Laboratories, New Mexico (US Department of Energy).
Some fields of cognotechnology have the potential to be used in possibly controversial ways, such as modifying the behavior of criminals or pacifying enemy combatants.
Yonas gave an address on cognotechnology and these areas currently being researched at a 2001 daylong symposium sponsored by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the world’s largest general science organization and the publisher of the prestigious academic journal Science.

Finally, there is potential according to some for truly drastic extension of spying and monitoring into the human senses and brain itself.
Such a "cognotechnology", which has actually been proposed by researchers at the United States military's Lawrence Livermore Labs[?], would have the potential to "detect criminal intent before it happens" and prevent an undesired behavior.
In this case, no persuasion of an overt nature would be required, as the desire to behave contrary to authority would itself be extinguished at source.

 Drexer warns symposium about NT dangers - Nanodot   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Krees writes: "Foresight founder Eric Drexler addresed a terrorism symposium Tuesday [18 December], warning of the "extreme downsides" of nanotechnology and criticizing some nanotech researchers for their apparent failure to consider the negative applications of their technologies.
For some background, read the Foresight Position Statement on Avoiding High-Tech Terrorism, and an open letter from Dr. Drexler on "Nanotechnology: Six Lessons from Sept. 11".
With nanotechnology, he said, it’s feasible to use brain implants to moderate behavior or brain functioning; he also discussed a developing field that focuses on remote sensing of brain function, including the intention to commit deception [Progress toward such systems was reported here on 13 November 2001.]

Cognotechnology is a term coined by American military researchers seeking a means of human mind control via nanotechnology.
They are not funded specifically to do such research, but the American military establishment is very heavily funding research efforts into other areas of nanotechnology, and recognizes its usefulness in creating weapons of mass destruction.

 Total Information Awareness - SourceWatch
Human Identification at a Distance, or HumanID, "is to develop automated biometric identification technologies to detect, recognize and identify humans at great distances." This program intends to be able to implement a face and gait identification system effective up to 150 meters at all times by fiscal year 2004.
An extreme proposed version of this is called cognotechnology and would rely on nanotechnology.
Translingual Information Detection, Extraction and Summarization, or TIDES, is being developed to detect, translate, summarize, and extract information in speech or text in multiple languages.
