The HP Omnicept VR platform is a ground-breaking collaboration between HP’s VR software team and scientists at HP labs. Driven by research in neuroscience, psychology, and affective computing, Omnicept VR combines physiological sensing with cutting edge machine learning to create human-centered, AI solutions.

With the launch of the HP Omnicept SDK, HP introduces VR Spatial Audio, which gives VR applications an immersive sound environment. Users perceive sound sources to originate from their relative position in the virtual environment. A Machine Learning approach provides a more realistic audio experience.

You are invited to familiarize yourself with the methods and dataset used in creating the HP Labs Omnicept cognitive load inference engine.   Start with the link below for the ReadMe which will give an overview of the experiment, procedure and the data descriptions.  You must login or create an HP ID to download the data set.

Dr. Erika Siegel of HP Labs has been studying human cognition for 15 years. In this engaging video she explains cognitive load and why HP Omnicept is a useful tool in a VR developer's toolbox.
