Abstract:

Technological advancements have made life better in many ways, but have also become a distraction. The objective of The Concen-Training System is to improve user focus while working at the computer. Positive reinforcement in the form of a smartphone lockbox is used to encourage good study habits with a rewards system. A series of LEDs notify the user when a break is issued. Negative reinforcement in the form of a gentle seat vibration notification deters poor habits from developing and reminds the user to return their focus. An eye-tracking camera monitors the user's gaze, registering when the user maintains focus on their screen, as well as keeping track of when the user’s focus diverges. Weight sensors placed within the smartphone lockbox and vibration chair module act as gates for the eye-tracking software to begin monitoring. All elements working in unison aid in the development of concentration.
