Affective Computing
Cognitive domains of processing speed, reaction time, vigilance and working memory are central to our ability to perform at peak levels. But most of us do not perform at an optimal level. Cognitive disorders, such as ADHD, mild cognitive impairment, head injury and Alzheimer's, affect over 25 million people in the US. New technologies and media platforms are enabling practical applications of neuroscience advances. |
