Abstract

Visual working memory (VWM), a crucial short-term and long-term memory component, underpins cognitive performance and daily life. This study proposes optimizing VWM formation by strategically designing sensory stimuli (SS) to enhance the cognitive conversion from sensory memory to VWM. The present study hypothesizes integrating various SS parameters based on a systematic review of previous research to improve the VWM's overall performance, including attentional selection and VWM consolidation. It also highlights the conducive role of multi-ss interactions in expanding the potential of improving cognitive conversion. Targeting the optimal period for cognitive development, this research focuses on children to maximize the potential for enhanced thinking abilities. The improved cognitive conversion in VWM formation may serve as an effective intervention for cognitive impairments. To personalize training and adapt to individual cognitive growth, this study explores the incorporation of AI markers and Reinforcement Learning (RL) into smart toys, providing dynamic feedback and optimizing VWM development during interactive play. However, there are still some challenges at play considering the speciality of the targeted children population and the VWM mechanism's complexity. This research suggested some suggestions, underscoring the value of flexible interdisciplinary method transformation.
