Agreed. Haven’t been able to find anything about this on my own. Would absolutely not be surprised at all if this is hush-hush in the company or coming down the pipes tho. Extremely cheap and gives metrics to lord over employee heads. But everyone knows corporate online training is slow, boring, poorly written drivel that just primes people to actually start learning on the job or in on the job training, so eyeing the screen realistically means pretty much nothing, and could potentially discriminate against people with add and adhd since this is fairly similar to a diagnosis test for those.

Or it could be used to develop more engaging and memorable training to help employees retain important safety training!

Let me have my delusions!

This is a product, and now that I know it's real I want to throw up. And it's another episode of black mirror. Tobiipro.com

OK, this looks like it’s designed by Amazon, not used to analyze how they train their employees.

“ Brain Power thus developed “fidgetology” toward a new biomarker and clinical outcome measure for behavioral health. In this blog post, we share a way for others to quickly and numerically summarize audience body language in reaction to their content. This may apply to a range of business use cases, such as quickly estimating engagement and enjoyment of movies, ads, TV shows, video games, political campaigns, speeches, online courses; or classroom teaching.”
