Abstract Advancements in hardware technology and analysis methods allow more mobility electroencephalography (EEG) experiments. Mobile Brain/Body Imaging (MoBI) studies may record various types of data such as motion or eye tracking addition to neural activity. Although there are options available analyze EEG a standardized way, they do not fully cover complex multimodal from mobile We thus propose the BeMoBIL Pipeline, an easy-to-use pipeline MATLAB that supports time-synchronized handling...
In real life, behavior is influenced by dynamically changing contextual factors and rarely limited to simple tasks binary choices. For a meaningful interpretation of brain dynamics underlying more natural cognitive processing in active humans, ecologically valid test scenarios are essential. To understand whether restricted artificial lab settings reflect the neural activity complex environments, we systematically tested auditory event-related P300 both settings. We developed an integrative...
When walking in our natural environment, we often solve additional cognitive tasks. This increases the demand of resources needed for both and motor systems, resulting Cognitive-Motor Interference (CMI). A large portion neurophysiological investigations on CMI took place static settings, emphasizing experimental rigor but overshadowing ecological validity. As a more ecologically valid alternative to treadmill desktop-based setups investigate CMI, developed dual-task scenario virtual reality...
Abstract The parallel execution of two motor tasks can lead to performance decrements in either one or both the tasks. Age-related declines further magnify underlying competition for cognitive resources. However, little is known about neural dynamics resource allocation during dual-task walking. To better understand conflicts, this study investigated sensorimotor brain rhythms younger and older adults using a protocol. Time-frequency data from independent component clusters were extracted...
Neuroscience of dance is an emerging field with important applications related to health and well-being, as has shown potential foster adaptive neuroplasticity increasingly popular a therapeutic activity or adjunct therapy for people living conditions such Parkinson's Alzheimer's diseases. However, the multimodal nature presents challenges researchers aiming identify mechanisms involved when used combat neurodegeneration support healthy ageing. Requiring simultaneous engagement motor...
With the help of current experiment, we wanted to learn more about impact visually demanding vs. cognitively secondary tasks on attention allocation older pedestrians during phase traffic perception within process road crossing. For this purpose, used two different crossing as well tasks. The “stop task” was a signal detection task, where an approaching car had be detected. “go dynamic visual search resolution busy situation identified. task static and cognitive 1-back (memory) task. One...
Background: Hearing impairments are associated with reduced walking performance under Dual-task (DT) conditions. Little is known about the neural representation of DT while in this target group compared to healthy controls or younger adults. Therefore, utilizing Mobile Brain/Body Imaging approach (MoBI), we aim at gaining deeper insights into brain dynamics underlying interaction cognitive and motor processes during different conditions (visual auditory) controlling for age potential...
Abstract As older pedestrians are at high risk of being involved in car crashes, an assistance system is currently under development. One it’s aims to encourage them stop walking before looking for traffic. The approach was evaluated two studies. Age group -young vs. old- and motoric condition -walking standing- served as independent variables both experiments. Experiment one conducted a pedestrian traffic simulation with related visual hazard detection task simulated walking. Analysis...
ABSTRACT While walking in our natural environment, we continuously solve additional cognitive tasks. This increases the demand of resources needed for both and motor systems, resulting Cognitive-Motor Interference (CMI). it is well known that a performance decrease one or tasks can be observed, little about human brain dynamics underlying CMI during dual-task walking. Moreover, large portion previous investigations on took place static settings, emphasizing experimental rigor but...

Older pedestrians are at a high risk of becoming victims car accidents because they tend not to pay sufficient attention upcoming traffic. Within our research project, an assistance system for older has been developed. It detects the street and communicates with users through vibrotactile interface. Two evaluation studies have carried out in order understand potential benefits drawbacks developed system. One study was conducted virtual environment (VR) 23 participants, aged 65+. The other...
For older persons, everyday mobility is an important aspect of living independent and self-determined life. Especially with increasing age most the ways in urban areas are covered by foot. The more severe fact that pedestrians among vulnerable road users. This starting point research group FANS aiming for developing a pedestrian assistance system Therefore, it necessary to understand difficulties encounter. In order do so, this will be conceptualized using Constraints Approach...
