I would like to see how this sort of thing could benefit people with traumatic brain injuries as it would be a great service to people suffering from this sort of malady but also probably easier to measure the effects on this group compared to a bunch of average individuals.
- neurotech1 11y agoCheaper EEG sensor interfacing for (neuro)feedback would be a major step forward. Using the EEG sensor with various game interfaces is possible, and has been beneficial for patients with Traumatic Brain Injury. With TBI, the issue is often connectivity between parts of the brain, and that can be measured as EEG Coherence. I agree with lettergram and others, that without feedback these type braingames don't really do anything.
- BillinghamJ 11y agoThis is what SenseLabs (https://senselabs.com https://senselabs.com) are doing with a product called Versus (https://getversus.com https://getversus.com). It's an EEG sensor connected to an iPad where you play games. Disclosure: I used to work for them.
- lettergram 11y agoThat is one area we really want to study, to see if there is any way we can benefit. We are sure it can monitor concussions, but to what extent is still to be determined. However, we don't have funding at this point (partially because we want to avoid Luminosity's fate of being tied to growth), so we are just focusing on getting a fully developed product that some psychologists we are working with would use.
