They also carried out a braintrainingstyle test before and after seeing a section from the film. The test covered memory, reaction times and cognitive function and the results were pared later. Dr Fagan said that the results showed enough of an improvement in brain function to suggest that 3D could play a part in improving brain power in the future. A second part of the experiment involved those watching the film being fitted with headsets that scanned brain activity and this too showed heightened (加強(qiáng)的) activity when watching 3D.

How can I use a treadmill outdoors? He eventually came up with a design, to which he added an electric engine, and Lopifit was born. The treadmill bicycle is similar to a typical electric bicycle in that the motor only works when the rider puts power in as well.
