Augmented Cognition

...and now for another Human Factors Minute! Augmented Cognition research and development efforts seek to extend a user’s abilities via computational technologies that are explicitly designed to address and accommodate bottlenecks, limitations, and biases in cognition, such as limitations in attention, memory, learning, comprehension, visualization abilities, and decision making. At its core, the Augmented Cognition is concerned with fostering the development and application of: • Real-time physiological and neurophysiological sensing technologies that can ascertain a human’s cognitive state while interacting with computing-based systems; • Mitigation (adaptive) strategies that enable efficient and effective system adaptation based on a user’s dynamically changing cognitive state; • Individually-tailored training systems; The Augmented Cognition aims to discover, develop, and apply neuroscience-based methodologies and tools that can enhance the human-centered approaches inl human-system integration issues, specific human-computer interaction techniques, or a combination of both.

Profile picture for Nick Roome

Nick Roome

Nick is currently a Senior UX Researcher at Turvo in the Pacific Northwest, focused on developing innovative solutions and optimizing human performance for SaaS based supply chain logistics programs. Alongside colleague and friends, Blake Arnsdorff and Barry Kirby, Nick hosts and produces Human Factors Cast, a weekly podcast that investigates the sciences of human factors, psychology, engineering, biomechanics, industrial design, physiology and anthropometry and how it affects our interaction with technology. Nick’s other areas of interest include, but are not limited to virtual, augmented, and mixed reality, systems engineering, and artificially intelligent systems.

Nick Started Human Factors Cast in early 2016 as a side-project. He believed that the way Human Factors concepts were being communicated is broken and saw a way to fix it. After getting initial traction, Nick moved to work on the Human Factors Cast Digital Media Lab and began assembling a multi-disciplinary team to test out new concepts in Human Factors communication.
