Study: Self-driving cars will increase motion sickness…unless we retrain our brains to improve visuospatial skills

Is brain train­ing the cure for car sick­ness? (The Sun­day Times): RESEARCHERS from the Uni­ver­si­ty of War­wick think they’ve found the cure for motion sick­ness, a con­di­tion to which a third of peo­ple are high­ly sus­cep­ti­ble and from which any­one can suf­fer. The impli­ca­tions could be sig­nif­i­cant should ful­ly dri­ver­less vehi­cles become a real­i­ty, with passengers…

Will self-driving vehicles lead to a surge of brain training?

Brain train­ing may be required for occu­pants of dri­ver­less vehi­cles (Traf­fic Tech­nol­o­gy): “A much-tout­ed per­ceived ben­e­fit of autonomous vehi­cle tech­nol­o­gy is that work­ing and a vari­ety of leisure activ­i­ties could be per­formed dur­ing the time freed up from being behind the wheel.
