Recent advancements in neuroscience and engineering have significantly expanded the accessibility and utility of mobile, wearable neurotechnologies, enabling real-time recording and modulation of brain activity in natural, everyday environments. Neuroergonomics, an emerging interdisciplinary field, leverages these innovations to explore the intricate relationship between brain function and behavior in real-world contexts. The development of portable neuroimaging sensors and noninvasive neurostimulation techniques allows researchers to study perceptual, cognitive, and motor functions with unprecedented precision and ecological validity. These technological advances provide valuable insights that inform the design of next-generation systems and technologies, seamlessly integrating with human users by aligning with cognitive and physiological processes. The application of neuroergonomic principles has the potential to revolutionize how we communicate, learn, work, and engage with technology, leading to more intuitive human–system interactions and enhanced human performance and experience. As neuroergonomics continues to evolve, it is poised to play a pivotal role in boosting cognitive performance and improving quality of life through innovative neural interfaces and their practical applications.
