Tools and technologies have long complemented and extended our
physical abilities: from pre-historic spearheads to steam-propelled
ploughs and high-tech prosthetics. While the development of lenses
granted us insights into the micro and macrocosms, new sensors and
technologies increasingly augment our cognitive abilities,
including memory and perception. This book integrates current
research efforts, results, and visions from the fields of computer
science, neuroscience, and psychology. It provides a comprehensive
overview of the state-of-the-art and future applications of how
technologies assist and augment human perception and cognition.
Experts in the field share their research and findings on: Working
memory enhancements Digitization of memories through lifelog
archives The consequences of technology-induced disruptions and
forgetting The creation and utilization of new human senses Ethical
and security concerns that arise with augmentation technologies. As
technology weaves itself ever deeper into our lives, careful
examination of its capabilities, risks and benefits is warranted.
While this book focuses on the complementation and augmentation of
human capabilities, it serves as a foundation for students,
researchers and designers of technologies that push the boundaries
of perception and cognition.
