Abstract

Abstract Objectives In this paper series of experiments were carried out in order to check the influence of various sounds on human concentration during visually stimulated tasks performance. Methods The obtained data was filtered. For the study purposes various smoothing filters were tested, including Median and Savitzky–Golay Filters; however, median filter only was applied. Implementation of this filter made the obtained data more legible and useful for potential diagnostics purposes. The tests were carried out with the implementation of the Emotiv Flex EEG headset. Results The obtained results were promising and complied with the initial assumptions, which stated that the “relax”-phase, despite relaxing sounds stimuli, is strongly affected with the “focus”-phase with distracting sounds, which is clearly visible in the shape of the recorded EEG data. Conclusions Further investigations with broader range of subjects is being currently carried out in order to confirm the already obtained results.
