What is attention computing?
Attention computing is an ecosystem of sensor technologies that interpret our conscious and subconscious behavior through how we move, where we look, and what captures our attention.
Smarter tech
To enable a smarter generation of devices, we need to empower technology to truly understand its users. Currently, devices respond to what we type, click, and tap - but to fully provide for the user’s needs, smart devices need to truly understand our behavior.
This is where attention computing comes in. By capturing and analyzing what users look at, combined with an expanded set of signals like posture, facial expression, and body movement, devices can gain a higher level of intuition and understanding of their users.
Devices of the future
Attention computing is about laying the groundwork for the technology of tomorrow. The way we interact with our devices has developed over time, from keyboards and mice, to touchscreens and voice assistants – all of these remain in widespread use.
The next stage of interaction will include perceptive devices that respond to our gestures, expressions, and natural movement. We provide the sensor technology that breathes life into these devices – and we’ve only just gotten started!
Attention computing applications
Attention computing doesn’t stop at improving devices. Powerful sensor technologies can read people on a deeper level, collecting all manner of insights that aid scientific research, medical diagnosis, safety enhancement, and training. The applications of attention computing are endless, but here are some of our favorites.
