Our Goal Companion Technology is an emerging field of cross disciplinary research, aiming at a paradigm shift in human-technology interaction. It is intended to enable technical systems of any kind to appear as individual, competent, and empathic assistants to their users. The targeted Companion-systems are cognitive technical systems that smartly adapt their services to both…
Read More >Cognitive Computing
Our Goal Cognitive Computing breaks the traditional boundary between neuroscience and computer science, and paves the way for machines that will have reasoning abilities analogous to a human brain. It’s an interdisciplinary research and application field, and uses methods from psychology, biology, signal processing, physics, information theory, mathematics, and statistics. The development of Cognitive Computing…

Our Goal Brain-Machine Interfaces (BMI) are about transforming thought into action, or, conversely, sensation into perception. One example of this paradigm contends that a user can perceive sensory information and enact voluntary motor actions through a direct interface between the brain and a prosthetic device in virtually the same way that we see, hear, walk,…
