Brain Technology in Augmented Cognition: Current and Future Trends informs engineers interested in human-computer interaction about the current state of augmented cognition. Its scope includes recent advances in electroencephalography (EEG), neural network (NN), and brain-computer interface (BCI) brain technologies.

The title explores in detail each technological approach to augmented cognition and offers conclusions to them, summarizing the work and their respective futures. Augmented cognition research often includes the use of brain technology, and this book addresses advances in augmented cognition and its applications. It details recent uses of EEG, NN, and BCI in the field and how they may augment user, researcher, and practitioner cognition. Focusing on the use of EEG for eye-tracking, NN logic, and the BCI application of motor-imagery (MI) and discussing challenges and opportunities relevant to such applications, the title is a useful introduction to the subject matter.

This is an engaging read for any student, researcher or academic in the fields of engineering, augmented cognition, human-computer interaction and human factors/ergonomics who will learn the basics and key concepts of augmented cognition through this simple and straightforward title.
