What a round involves, and what the results can and cannot tell you.
Remote viewing is the claim that a person can describe a place, object or image they have no ordinary way of knowing about. Where the idea came from, what the method is and what the evidence for it amounts to are set out on a separate page about remote viewing. This page is about the tool: it is for testing that claim on yourself. You are given a reference number that stands for a hidden image, you record whatever impressions come to you, and only then is the image shown.
Nothing here is a test you can pass or fail, and no result you record changes what you are shown next. It is a way of keeping an honest record over many attempts instead of remembering the hits and forgetting the misses.
Once a round is revealed it counts. You can cancel a round before revealing if you are interrupted or change your mind, and nothing is recorded.
You score your own rounds. There are three choices:
| Hit | Your impressions clearly matched the image — you would have recognised it from what you wrote and drew. |
|---|---|
| Partial | Some real elements matched: a shape, a colour, a mood, one object among several. |
| Miss | Nothing meaningful matched. |
Scoring after seeing the image is the weak point of any self-run test. It is very easy to look at a picture and find your own words in it. The record is only worth as much as the honesty you bring to it, so it is better to score strictly and be surprised than to score generously and learn nothing.
Images are drawn from separate pools so that results can be compared between them. Currently loaded: pool A, 30 images; pool C, 23 images.
The order is shuffled for each person, and no image comes round again until every one has been shown once. Your place in that order is remembered between visits, so leaving and coming back does not restart the sequence or repeat a target you have already seen.
Each completed round stores the target reference, which pool it came from, your score, your written impressions, your sketch, and how long the round took. There are no accounts, no passwords, no email addresses and no names.
Your rounds are reached through a private link created the first time you begin. That link is the only key to your record: anyone holding it can read your rounds and add to it, and it cannot be recovered if you lose it. You can download everything you have recorded at any time as a spreadsheet file with your sketches alongside it.
You can also create a separate public link that shows nothing but your hit rate and round counts — no impressions, no sketches, no target images — and you can revoke it later.
A percentage here is not evidence of anything on its own. There is no chance baseline to compare it against, because you are judging a free description against a picture rather than choosing between a fixed number of options.
What the record is good for is watching yourself over time: whether your strict hits cluster in particular conditions, whether one pool behaves differently from another, whether your scoring drifts as you get more practice. A run of a few rounds says nothing. Dozens of rounds, scored the same way throughout, start to be worth looking at.
If you want to make it a real test rather than a practice record, the usual step is to have someone who did not produce the impressions judge them against the target, without knowing which target was the intended one. This tool does not do that, and does not pretend to.
Results are the viewer's own judgement of their own impressions. Nothing recorded here is independently verified.
