While the entertainment industry has focused primarily on applications for augmenting cognitive and sensorimotor function, as seen in Star Trek, Firefox, and many other science-fiction scenarios, the scientific community has targeted clinical applications, such as neuroprostheses for restoring motor function after traumatic lesion of the central nervous system.
For example, patients with schizophrenia exhibit difficulties in sensorimotor gating [ 14 ] , smooth pursuit eye-tracking [ 15 ] , set-shifting [ 16 ] , and working memory tasks [ 17 ] . Children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) exhibit abnormal performance in sustained attention tasks [ 18 ] and studies on autism reveal slowed covert orienting of visual spatial attention [ 19 ] . Patients with Alzheimer's disease show covert orienting deficits in visual attention tasks [ 20 ] .

However, the tasks used in these studies have not generally involved either the orienting network alone, or the task involves an undefined combination of different networks.
