I spent a great portion of my day today doing research on e-learning. I came across a company called Lumos Labs Inc (http://www.lumosity.com/) based out of San Francisco, California.

It caught my attention, and I decided to take a look around. Their slogan is “reclaim your brain™” which is precisely what they do. Lumos Labs is a cognitive neuroscience research and development company that builds software tools for improving brain health and performance.

Lumosity, a brain fitness prorgam is the first from Lumos Labs Inc. They specialize in creating innovative applications of the latest developments in brain science in order to help people lead better lives.

According to Lumos Labs, Why Brain Fitness? Well, because:-

• The brain needs care just like the body
• Computer-based brain exercises can improve how we think
• Scientifically validated brain fitness program with engaging exercises and empirically tested brain games (demonstrated to train and improve your memory, attention, processing speed and cognitive control)

The testimonials on the site are very good, and I did do the Lumos IQ test, and my score was impressive. Overall, I liked the simplicity, and the look and feel of the games and I am sure you will too.

S4Potential, is similar to Lumos Labs Inc, because we specialize in helping people from all walks of life lead better lives and hopefully fulfill their potentials. Our approach combines ‘best practices’ cognitive psychology, learning fundamentals and multimedia to develop highly engaging and interactive learning environments.
