Artificial Intelligence and work, a binomial full of advantages

Precisely in order to avoid reaching that fatigue or stress that causes professionals to'burn out' in their work, a new weapon has emerged. This platform is the result of an international study involving the Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM), which began when a mixture of "stress and frenzy" at work was detected on a regular basis, which "often causes people to enter a feeling of mental fog". The development of this platform, called MBioTracker, has been carried out by an international team of scientists from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL, in Switzerland) and the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM). It consists of a physiological signal acquisition and processing system that incorporates new algorithms and processing methods to monitor cognitive load on the task. This provides valuable information for decision making and can provide for adaptive support for the worker.
