Abstract
A cognitive load estimation system. The system includes an-in ear device (IED) configured to be placed within an ear canal of a user. The IED includes a first set of functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) optodes that are configured to capture first fNIRS signal data representing hemodynamic changes in a brain of the user. The system further includes at least one electroencephalography (EEG) electrode configured to capture electrical signals corresponding to brain activity of the user. The system further includes a controller configured to filter the first fNIRS signal data based in part on the electrical signals to generate filtered fNIRS signal data. The controller is further configured to estimate a cognitive load of the user based on the filtered fNIRS signal data.
