Key findings
- Voice-based email was about 220% faster
- Lower prefrontal EEG workload with the voice system
An engineering study comparing a standard mouse-and-keyboard email program with a voice-driven email system, measuring speed and EEG workload over the prefrontal cortex. The voice-based system was much faster and placed measurably less cognitive load on participants.
