Every major evolution in computing shortens the gap between human and machine to a point where, today, we literally touch and speak to our devices. Through this lens we gave birth to the idea of the cognitive wearable. Like a fitness tracker, a mental tracker that would help you understand your brain to help better understand the very essence that makes us human. These are some of the key ingredients behind the past five years of work. A goal to make an everyday brain technology product. By gaining a better sense of understanding, we can create a more equitable, and inclusive world through building tools that allow us to better interact with the world around us. In this presentation, we will show what is capable with a cognitive wearable built with the future of work in mind.
As we learn about the impact of mental health and how it impacts our daily lives and how we work, we’re discovering more scientific insights of how we can improve this in our daily lives. Our session will be on how we can apply these scientific insights, to create a better, more equitable future.
We're hoping that many efforts and discussions will continue after Mozfest. Share any ideas you already have for how to continue the work from your session.:Would love to collaborate with other sessions to see how our ideas can collide for more interactive experiences!
We’d love to host discussions around ethical tech, neurodiversity and inclusion and how others can use our findings to help us understand better routines and encourage a more diverse world.
How will you deal with varying numbers of participants in your session?:Our belief is that technology and innovation should be not only understandable, but also accessible. This includes the way that we present and talk about our technology as well. By breaking down the discussion into various parts with a series of both auditory and visual queues that will help those following along.
If there are more participants than we can handle individually, we'll abstract to higher level issues. If there are smaller groups, we can walk individuals through their respective use cases to see how we can apply the technology and source new solutions best.
Through storytelling through a variety of use cases, we hope that each individual could see how this would best impact their lives.
