VIRTUAL REALITY

Measuring effects of 360º video ads, and immersive reality stimuli through Virtual Reality HMD such as Hololens, HTC, or Oculus. Two research projects are developed on Consumer Brand Choice Behavior in virtual commerce (CBCB) and Information Processing of Advertising Stimuli (IPAS).

       RHUMBO. 2018-2023

RHUMBO proposes using measurements of subconscious brain processes through mixed reality technologies (MRT) and advanced processing of biometric signals as a new paradigm to improve the knowledge that implicit brain processes have in human decision-making. This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program as part of Marie Curie grant No 813234.

The objective is to create an innovative multidisciplinary excellence doctoral training network program to produce 11 ESRs in cognitive neuroscience, immersion experiences, and artificial intelligence with a neuro-business approach.
