Abstract

Navigating (familiar) environments requires spatial memory and spatial
orientation. Mobile information systems (IS) have largely taken on this task
and have changed human behavior. What impact has the redistribution of problem solving on human skills and knowledge? We are interested in exploring
how the use of IS impacts on knowledge/ignorance by means of mobile brain-body imaging. In this paper, we introduce a novel experimental testbed developed to study spatial orientation in the context of geographic maps. Key system features include data synchronization between various devices and data sources, flexibility in designing and modeling research questions and integration of online co-adaptive brain-computer interfacing (BCI) technology. Flexibility, adaptability, scalability and modifiability of the implemented system turn the testbed into a general-purpose tool for studying NeuroIS constructs.
