Development of a Multi-user System to Identify the Level of Attention in People

Abstract

The level of attention in people is associated with efficiency in their intellectual activities, in their level of understanding and in the development of their creative ability. The physiological variables with greater relevance in this application are the brain waves due to the cognitive relationship that exists between thinking and brain activity, therefore its implication is direct in this context. There are different techniques and systems described in the literature that are used to measure enumerable physiological variables related to the attention states of people. Some current limitations of these systems is that they only use a physiological variable and these systems are of the single-user type. In this paper an analysis of the state of the art is made with respect to the type of variables, techniques, instruments and types of systems used to measure the level of attention in people.
