There may not be a need to cram before a test in the future.
Scientists said they have designed a simulator that will feed information directly into a brain, The Telegraph reported.
They said that it could be a step closer to making the instant learning that was seen in "The Matrix" a reality.
In the movie, Neo, played by Keanu Reeves, learned kung fu moments after it was uploaded to his brain.
HRL Laboratories said that by using low-current electrical brain stimulation, they can help people learn complex skills.
They recorded the brain activity of six commercial and military pilots, then transmitted the patterns into novice pilots as they learned to fly in a flight simulator.
The novices were able to fly better with the experts' patterns being beamed into their brains.
