Abstract

Attention is one of the main cognitive skills that is constantly used in everyday life. However, various factors can be diminished and even blocked by various disorders, diseases or behaviors that affect people's performance. To analyze the brain signals, the Neurosky MindWave EEG device is required, this device determines the levels of attention of people when they perform some activity and Arduino for data capture. This article compares data obtained from reading the level of care of people of different ages and sex using the Neurosky and Arduino Uno devices. The results obtained show that women (sex) and adults (age) have greater stability of attention over time, and that men (sex) and youth (age) get to obtain higher levels of attention.
