Abstract

NeverMind is an interface and application designed to support human memory. We combine the memory palace memorization method with augmented reality technology to create a tool to help anyone memorize more effectively. Preliminary experiments show that content memorized with NeverMind remains longer in memory compared to general memorization techniques. With this project, we hope to make the memory palace method accessible to novices and demonstrate one way augmented reality can support learning.

The Memory Palace: Exploring Visual-Spatial Paths for Strong, Memorable, Infrequent Authentication
UIST '19: Proceedings of the 32nd Annual ACM Symposium on User Interface Software and Technology

Many accounts and devices require only infrequent authentication by an individual, and thus authentication secrets should be both secure and memorable without much reinforcement. Inspired by people's strong visual-spatial memory, we introduce a novel ...

Optimized virtual reality-based Method of Loci memorization techniques through increased immersion and effective memory palace designs: a feasibility study
Abstract
For most, an improvement in memory would always be desirable, whether from the point of view of an aging individual with declining memory, or from the perspective of someone seeking to memorize large amounts of information in the shortest period ...
