Abstract :
Use of the information technology increases chances of adapting to changing environments. This applies to wild jungle as it applies to the urban information jungle. Modern wearable devices will allow to improve physical and augmented mental capabilities of humans. An interdisciplinary approach aimed at improving human mental processes is cognitive enhancement. There are many diverse methods in this approach, like: neuropharmacology, genetics, natural, social prevention, informatics. In this paper we aconsider opportunities of cognitive enhancement delivered by computer devices (cognitive technologies). Three systems proposals are provided and described, including an enhaced P3-speller.
