The Best Blend of Tradition and Trend: Enhancing Cognitive Tests with Digital Pens and Mobile Brain Imaging
The project enhances a neuropsychological test of visual memory, the Rey Figure Test, using smart pens and mobile brain imaging. The project team develops a computer vision algorithm to automate figure analysis, analyzes pen movement data to improve test validity, and uses fNIRS to establish imaging-based biomarkers of cognitive performance.
