Despite the fact that modern technologies are not able to carry out teleportation of objects, scientists have gained an understanding of how our brain reacts to move from one location to another thanks to the research of neuroscientists from the University of California.
More work available in the journal Neuron paper.

Researchers interested in how people remember the place and routes and learns to determine its own path. During orientation in space during the passage of a route in the human brain rhythmic oscillations occur. Scientists do not know whether it is triggered by a process of learning or sensory perception. Researchers at UCLA have solved this problem by working with patients with a severe form of epilepsy. The subjects were implanted with electrodes in the brain to find out where the seizure activity begins, and to determine treatment options.

The subjects moved into the urban landscape using a virtual reality system. Sometimes people “entered the Teleport” and “moved” to another well-known to them the location on the map. During the “teleportation” was a black screen for a random period of time. As it turned out, “teleportation” is not interrupted cerebral vibrations completely, but the rhythm of their varied with distance traveled during teleportation.

Scientists concluded that the fluctuations depend only on memory and learning processes in the brain, and do not depend on senses. The results also show that the fluctuations are about the speed information and distance traveled, even though the “teleportation” occurred virtually
