How to take aura with a webcam

It was found that in persons suffering from a particular disease, a strictly defined change in the structure of the luminous crown was observed - the illumination of a sick person suddenly changed: dark dots appeared, spots appeared, narrowed and turned into torn pieces of a once flat field. It is curious that in some cases this change was possible to fix even before the appearance of the first symptoms of the disease ... ”
In many pseudoscientific publications, the Kirlian effect is mentioned as allegedly proving the existence of the so-called “biofield,” or “aura.” However, since it is observed only when an external source of high-frequency voltage acts on the body, it is reasonable to assume that the Kirlian effect has nothing to do with the “biofield”.
Over time, scientists figured out the physical nature of the Kirlian effect. Of course, photographs do not shine on human biofields. After all, a similar glow arises around an ordinary nail. Exaggerating, we can say that the pulsed electromagnetic field in which photographing takes out the electrons and photons that create a radiant corona from the object under study. But if the luminescence of objects is always constant, then the luminescence of a person and other biological objects changes, depending on some underlying processes in the body.




Comparing the halos of healthy and sick people, scientists learned from the discharge pictures on ten fingers to draw conclusions about the state of all human organs. Of course, the device is unlikely to make an accurate diagnosis. He, for example, will report that the subject has liver problems. Moreover, he will do this long before a person feels the symptoms of the disease. Not without reason, these devices already work in 63 countries of the world, including the USA and all of Europe.
There are still many “myths” about the prospects of using Kirlianography - it can also look into the soul of a person. It is called the only way in the world to objectively evaluate the psychological characteristics of a person in general, and the current psychological state in particular. It seems like, together with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, an approach has been developed that allows you to identify people who are prone to illegal actions.
Perspectives such as reading information from the brain of a deceased person are even considered. They say that in the late 80s, similar work was carried out at the Research Institute of the KGB of the USSR. Researchers shot an encephalogram from a deceased, and then tried to fetch useful information from it. How the experiments ended is unknown. But maybe this seemingly fantastic task will someday be solved.
But perhaps the most amazing property of the Kirlian effect is its ability to accurately determine which external impact on a person is harmful and what is good.
For example, a number of researchers who conducted experiments with this effect say that in people talking on a cell phone, the “aura” begins to distort and very quickly becomes painful. And only 30 minutes after the conversation, she returns to normal. Devices based on the Kirlian effect clearly show the adverse effects of electromagnetic radiation on humans, even when these emissions do not exceed established sanitary standards. True, I could not find any official reports.
Currently, the Kirlian effect is used to find hidden defects in metals, in agriculture, the effect can be used to check seed germination, to distinguish plants affected by diseases from healthy ones, the Kirlian effect has been successfully used for rapid analysis of ore samples in geology.
The classic says: for Kirlian research, you need a Kirlian camera, a device that creates and captures a Kirlian image. So for its assembly you need an adjustable high voltage source, a transparent electrode with a dielectric layer, a highly sensitive digital camera, respectively, a housing, etc.
The essence of the method is that the object is placed between the capacitor plates, which are made of plexiglass. In a high-frequency field, an object between the plates acquires a special form of electrical conductivity, the so-called capacitive conductivity. An electric charge appears in it, which does not move, as in metals, but, on the contrary, is held at the same points where it arises, causing a glow of various brightness, corresponding to the conductivity of the placed object. The glow is visible visually.
The electrode must have maximum transparency, sufficient strength, uniformity and low resistance of the conductive coating, withstand high voltage. For such purposes, in home-made devices, it is proposed to use electrodes of two glasses, between which salt water is poured, or a thin coating of indium and tin oxides (ITO) (resistive touch panels for mobile phones are excellent as the latter).
The camera must be selected with maximum sensitivity (with a good CCD matrix) and the ability to focus manually over a wide range.
In the network, on thematic forums there are many schemes of this camera. Craftsmen make it from anything:



even from piezo-lighters:


But what do we see? Since the photographed object should be placed in the gap between the plates, and this is a gap of less than 0.5 mm, from this fact we can conclude that the Kirliani method can not take photographs of a person. At the same time, the market is filled with large swindlers who are trying to sell “a unique product - the MbGA aura camera”, which supposedly displays the psychological state and energy centers of a person (Today, the cost of a device based on the “Kirlian effect” is comparable to the cost of a domestic car)

A petty crooks who, for money, using the specified equipment, take photos of the “aura” of the people who applied, getting the following result at the output:

Moreover, the simplest equipment:


That is, some kind of box with electrodes, which has nothing to do with the Kirlian camera, an ordinary webcam, and a laptop. Oh yes, I forgot the most important thing - “Special software”. And all business. Interestingly, are these electrodes soldered to anything? It turns out all the drawings of the “aura” around the human body published on the Internet is nothing more than the speculation of programmers developing software for the gas-discharge visualization method?
I rummaged through the entire Habr, and did not find a single topic about this effect, about this equipment, about my own user experiments. Is it really not interesting to anyone?
Share, maybe someone disassembled this black box with electrodes, maybe someone touched the software live? What is inside?
P.S. Why are people being fooled by this crook, do you really want to believe that you can just keep track of your condition?
P.S.S. Or maybe I can make an application on iOS - I put a finger on the screen, and it gives you an aura, illness, and a purpose in life. Wow!
