Eidetic memory is the rare ability to recall a highly detailed image for a brief period after seeing it only once, without using any mnemonic device. While this phenomenon is most often observed in children, it's debated whether it exists in adults, and scientific evidence proving its reality is lacking. The ability is thought to involve strong brain connections, efficient synapses, and is sometimes associated with synesthesia, a neurological condition.
