Description The emergence of new imaging modalities, such as Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) and Photoacoustic (PA), have demonstrated the high potential for wide neuroscience, clinical neurology, and personal healthcare applications. However, the conventional way for data & imaging processing of NIRS and PA are offline processing and not in real time. Meanwhile, the processing unit is usually chosen as PC, which is bulky, heavy, and cumbersome, which further limit their wider Read More …
We seek a student (starting September 2021) to study how humans fundamental cognitive neuroscience of humans while they do complicated tasks in operational environments (e.g. planetary exploration, surgical operation, search and rescue), with a view to improving safety, training and operational performance. Activities will include observing and analyzing the operator’s behaviour in real environments and identifying bottlenecks, designing medium-fidelity controlled experimental paradigms that bridge laboratory and field work, and testing combinations of portable sensors during field Read More …
