Armond's dad was Eugene Aserinsky, a grad student looking to test out a new electroencephalograph, or EEG machine, that measures the brain's electrical activity.

他的爸爸是尤金·阿塞林斯基（Eugene Aserinsky），一位测试新脑电仪的博士生，脑电仪（EEG machine）是测大脑电的仪器。

New technologies such as electroencephalographs, which monitor electrical activity in the brain, have offered practitioners the ability to study brains directly, rather than trying to infer what they are doing from the behaviour of their owners.

脑电图仪等新技术可以监测大脑中的电，从业者能够直接研究大脑，而不是试图根据主人的行为来推断大脑在做什么。
