"<A href="http://blog.wired.com/defense/2007/03/the_us_military.html">Augmented Cognition</A>," the Darpa program to build computer interfaces that adapt to their users' brains, has officially run its course.  But efforts to build mind-reading PCs continue throughout the military establishment.  </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.wired.com/defense/2008/03/augcog-continue.html"><P>Augmented Cognition relies on the idea that <A href="http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/2007/03/72996">people have more than
one kind of working memory, and more than one kind of attention</A>; there
are separate slots in the mind for things written, things heard and
things seen. By monitoring how taxed those areas of the brain are, it
should be possible to change a computer's display to compensate. If people are getting too much visual information, send them a text alert. If
they reading too much at once, present some of the data
visually -- in a chart or map.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/77405A41-4138-4B74-91B2-B777B7F30022/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
