Neuro UX utilises neuroscience to explore user reactions and abilities in relation to various tasks and stimuli. By using Neuro UX, you can discover what people genuinely think of your test product packaging or materials. The primary focus is on consumer reactions to apps, websites, product packaging, and marketing materials (messages, advertising, visuals, etc.).

Neuro UX aims to understand human emotions, reactions, attention, susceptibility, and avoidance desires through physiological indicators. It uses measures that the human body does not consciously control, such as brain waves, cardiovascular and heart indicators (pulse, blood pressure), changes in the skin's chemical composition, muscle contractions (e.g., facial muscles), eye position (what is noticed), and pupil size changes.

For example, one might measure the difference in impulses between the right and left frontal lobes of the brain using a specialised device to understand whether an individual would choose or avoid a product or advertisement. By grasping subconscious and primary reactions, we can assess whether a person might unconsciously make a purchasing decision based on emotions, avoiding the mentally more complex rational consideration.

• the process resembles a standard user test
• we require a stimulus from the client – image, video, webpage, prototype
• testing with 15 people
• using Muse and MyGaze
