"Unlocking Cognitive Potential: The Power of Everyday Pleasures and Memory-Boosting Exercises"

A study conducted by NYU Tandon School of Engineering using MINDWATCH technology has found that everyday pleasures such as listening to music and drinking coffee can positively impact cognitive performance by altering brain arousal levels. The study utilized skin-monitoring wristbands and brain-monitoring headbands to measure brain activity while subjects completed cognitive tests. The algorithm revealed that music and coffee increased brain arousal, leading to improved performance in working memory tasks. The research aims to develop personal cognitive arousal monitoring tools that can help individuals manage stress and enhance cognitive function.
