contents Cognitive load, which varies across individuals, can significantly affect focus and memory performance.This study explores the integration of Virtual Reality (VR) with memory palace techniques, aiming to optimize VR environments tailored to individual cognitive load levels to improve focus and memory. We utilized EEG devices, specifically the Oculus Quest 2, to monitor Beta wave activity in 10 participants.By modeling their cognitive load profiles through polynomial regression, we dynamically adjusted spatial variables within a VR environment using Grasshopper, creating personalized experiences. Results indicate that 8 participants showed a notable increase in Beta wave activity, demonstrating improved focus and cognitive performance in the customized VR settings.These findings underscore the potential of VR-based memory environments, driven by cognitive load considerations, and provide valuable insights for advancing VR memory research
