075 EC-MOT

The primary objective of the present mandate is to develop and validate a cognitive training system to reduce the impact of the cognitive load of game situations on the biomechanics of athletes. A secondary objective will be to identify cognitive performance criteria that will enable us to identify individuals at risk (those whose biomechanics are affected by the cognitive task) so that we can target them with preventive training. The training system will consist of a perceptual-cognitive task within a virtual environment, visualized using a 3D visiocasque.
