Silent Speech Technology
[Minding the Planet] NASA's research on subvocalization technology is moving forward. Their system intercepts nerve signals to the vocal cords before the speaker makes a sound and then figures out what words they signify. This technology will enable people to speak silently on the phone or to their computers, without moving their lips or making a sound. It's almost telepathy.
Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.

[shey.net reblog] NASA's silent speech system: it telepathy. NASA refers to it as subvocal speech. Scientists at the NASA Ames Research Center in California... latest article for TheFeature, I look at the latest developments in NASA's subvocal speech system.... You may not make a sound when, say, you read silently, but your nervous system is buzzing
[The Man's Room] No!!! She will talk 24/7: NASA refers to it as subvocal speech. Scientists at the NASA Ames Research Center in California have developed a system of tiny sensors that read nerve signals in the throat that control speech. You may not make a sound when, say, you read silently, but your nervous system is buzzing with activity. Recently, they used the system to make the first subvocal cell phone call.
[Xenoverse] A Tiny Sip of Fafnir Blood: Faff the magic dragon has faffing magic blood! All of a sudden the bozon can understand the chirping of the birdies and - disastrously - the subvocal thinkings of Mime. Poor old Mime, on the verge of finally doing something right, speaks with his voice enticing words that invite the drythroat boy to slake his mighty fighter thirst, but underneath the boy can hear all of his plans!
[Personal Comments] Subvocalization: In preliminary experiments, NASA scientists found that small, button-sized sensors, stuck under the chin and on either side of the 'Adam's apple,' could gather nerve signals, and send them to a processor and then to a computer program that translates them into words. Eventually, such 'subvocal speech' systems could be used in spacesuits, in noisy places like airport towers to capture air-traffic controller commands, or even in traditional voice-recognition programs to increase accuracy, according to NASA scientists.

Imagine silently reading to yourself and hearing your vioce coming in loud and clear on a speaker. They have already tested the devices in a subvocal cell phone conversation.
[Bigblog.com] Search: NASA s subvocal speech system @ Big Blog: NASA's goal for future research and exploration within its Sun-Solar System Connection program is to observe and understand the complex phenomena associated with space weather by studying the Sun, the heliosphere and planetary environments as a single, inter-connected system. Such an understanding will represent not just a grand intellectual accomplishment for our times - it will also provide knowledge and predictive capabilities essential to future human and robotic exploration of space and will serve key societal objectives in important ways. Herein, we describe current plans for NASA's research programs in this area and the guiding principles we will follow in pursuit of forthcoming exploration challenges.
