Abstract: This paper shows the diagnostic benefits of using the Test Room to Measure the Cognitive Functions of the Brain (TRMCFB). This patent was obtained on 31 Aug 2015; number 4304, from King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This patent is an evaluation mechanic-technology to assess certain brain functions and psychological conditions and disorders through a number of different tests; e.g. mathematics, geometric shapes, discrimination dimensions, logical thinking, visual IQ, imagination test through images, forms arrangement, colour, fine motor skills, motor balance, motor coordination, visual-motor integration, wording, literature, art, recalling, short-term memory, long-term memory, comprehension, perception, ordering, analysis, composition, emotion, response speed, identify tones and, finally, a sounds test. The inventor, who is also a psychotherapist, did not find a single tool that was able to test a large number of brain functions and psychological disorders simultaneously and in a single mechanism. Most of the existing tests examine the brain functions and the cognitive abilities orally, whereas the existing medical devices such as the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) or the functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) examine a limited number of brain functions. The current patent (TRMCFB) would solve such problems by displaying a number of tests and questions that measure a large number of brain functions, cognitive abilities, and psychological conditions and disorders. In addition, the results of the tests displayed by the TRMCFB can be used for different purposes such as in selection for a certain educational field or professional position, to diagnose a psychological disorder, or simply to evaluate the brain abilities and capabilities.
