“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 neuroscience and technological possibility.”

​
        - Plinth Magazine


Cognitive Technologies was an interactive laboratory of emerging brain technologies, featured at the Exploratorium in San Francisco during spring 2015.  

The lab was the first interactive media environment to use realtime brain activity. It offered a glimpse into a potential future where neural prosthetics are more widespread. 
​
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 meditative exercise, and control a robotic arm with your brain.
