Výskumný tím PCL – Perception and Cognition Laboratory

Neurokognícia

Výskum: skúmame, ako mozog analyzuje a interpretuje zložité
sluchové a vizuálne podnety.

Ako to robíme: behaviorálne experimenty, neurálne zobrazovanie
a výpočtové modelovanie neurálnych a behaviorálnych procesov,

Aplikácie do praxe: načúvacie strojčeky, sluchové displeje, interakcia
človek-počítač, virtuálna realita.

Hlavným zameraním je priestorový sluch.
