Yuko Suzuki; Fridolin Wild; Eileen Scanlon – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2024
Background: Cognitive load during AR use has been measured conventionally by performance tests and subjective rating. With the growing interest in physiological measurement using non-invasive biometric sensors, unbiased real-time detection of cognitive load in AR is expected. However, a range of sensors and parameters are used in various subject…
