A device developed by scientists detects when a person is working too much and warns them.
It is thought that this device could be especially useful in stressful sectors.
Scientists reported that a device that monitors brain activity and gives an alarm when someone is working too much could be useful for people working in stressful jobs. The “temporary” tattoo in question monitors brain waves and warns when it detects that the person is working too much or not hard enough.
According to The Times newspaper, the device in question is placed on the forehead and face. Designed to detect when the brain is under pressure and strain, the device uses a technique known as electroencephalography to monitor electrical activity in the brain. The device also tracks eye movements.
The researchers who developed the device think that this device could be especially useful in areas such as air traffic control or medicine.
IT WILL PROVIDE CONTINUOUS AND REAL-TIME DATA
Nanshu Lu, lead author of the study and an academic at the University of Texas at Austin, said, “Technology is evolving faster than human evolution. Our brain capacity cannot keep up with this and can easily be overloaded. There is an optimum mental load that varies from person to person for optimum performance.”
Currently, people’s mental workload is measured according to the “NASA Task Load Index.” In this index, employees, including astronauts, are asked to answer questions in a survey after completing a task. Although this provides insight into the subject, it only provides data after the task is completed. The “electronic tattoo” that has been developed aims to provide continuous and real-time data.
“WE CAN NOW MONITOR MENTAL STRESS”
Co-author of the study and University of Texas academic Luis Sentis also explained in his assessment of the subject that they have been monitoring the physical health of workers for a long time, and have been monitoring injuries and muscle strains.
“Now we have the ability to monitor mental strain, which has not been monitored. This could fundamentally change the way organizations ensure the well-being of their workforce in general,” Sentis said.
The device in question consists of a small battery worn behind the ear and paper-thin sensors designed with rings and coils that fit comfortably on the skin and move with it. The sensors can also measure electrical activity in the brain in this way.
