Requirements for participation, required level

Human action requires to select currently important information from the wealth of information coming in from the senses. Brain mechanisms of attention enable this selection, and thereby provide a cornerstone for intelligent interaction with the environment. Here, we are going to explore the principles of attention, and apply it to the use and design of digital environments. Our goals are to find out 1) what particular needs for attention, perception, and cognition more generally are posed by digital environments, 2) how we can use methods from cognitive and experimental psychology to uncover these needs, and 3) how we can design digital and virtual environments that meet these needs to enable a successful and effortless interaction with the environment.
