Neurotechnology for sensing the brain out of the lab: methods and applications for mobile functional neuroimaging
With the advent of portable and wearable neuroimaging methods like electroencephalography (EEG), functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), and neurostimulation approaches like transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS), significant progress has been made in both recording and altering brain activity in real-world contexts outside of the laboratory, in the course of natural environments and unrestricted movement. As a result, these neurotechnologies are now expanding in the clinical field (assistive technologies, motor rehabilitation, etc.), spreading to the entertainment industry to enhance gaming experience, but also extending to the general public through wellbeing (e.g., meditation and relaxation induction, sleep improvement) and domotics (e.g., home automation) applications (Bikson et al., 2020; Charvet et al., 2020; Dehais et al., 2020; Ayaz et al., 2022). Following this trend, the range of neuroergonomics applications that can benefit from neurotechnology broadens. Indeed, they have the potential to alleviate mental and physical loads associated with the repetition of straining actions to improve task performance both in terms of precision and speed and to promote new forms of interactions to enhance human-technology symbiosis in a variety of applications.
