“While the Exploratorium generally features solidly-constructed exhibits that illustrate
established scientific principles, Cognitive Technologies bravely took visitors for a walk
along the bleeding edge of current neuroscientific knowledge and technological possibility.”

Cognitive Technologies was an interactive laboratory of emerging brain technologies, featured at the Exploratorium in San Francisco during spring 2015.
The lab was the world's first interactive media environment to use realtime brain activity. The experience offered a glimpse into a potential future where neural prosthetics are more ubiquitous. As a visitor to the lab, you could touch and feel an array of emerging brain technologies, such as high-resolution cortical tissue scanning, fMRI brain decoding, and portable EEG headsets. You could experience virtual reality-based neurofeedback, track your body's physiological changes during a calmness exercise, and control a robotic arm with your brain.

As a visitor, you could wander freely around the room while wearing a wireless portable EEG headset, and use your mental state to interact with light sculptures, a virtual reality game, and a meditation booth.
