1. A system to affect focus, comprising:
a first focus space comprising a substantially closed space including a plurality of walls, a floor, and a ceiling;
a display device associated with a first wall of the plurality of walls within the first focus space;
a filter device positioned at an angle relative to and in front of the display device, the filter device comprising a partially reflective, partially transmissive surface such that imaging data presented by the display device is viewable by a first user through the filter device in front of the display device;
an imaging device positioned at a lateral side of the display device and having a field of view directed toward the filter device in front of the display device such that the imaging device is configured to capture imaging data of the first user in front of the display device via the filter device; and
a processor in communication with the display device, the filter device, the imaging device, and a memory, the processor configured to at least:
receive data associated with the first user in the first focus space;
receive data associated with a second user in a second focus space;
receive data associated with an activity between the first user and the second user;
determine a difference target based at least in part on the first user, the second user, and the activity;
receive data related to the first user from a first plurality of sensors associated with the first focus space, wherein the data comprises imaging data of the first user captured by the imaging device via the filter device;
determine a first focus score for the first user based at least in part on the data from the first plurality of sensors;
receive data related to the second user from a second plurality of sensors associated with the second focus space;
determine a second focus score for the second user based at least in part on the data from the second plurality of sensors;
determine a difference between the first focus score and the second focus score;
determine a variation between the difference and the difference target; and
instruct, via at least one of a plurality of output devices associated with one of the first focus space or the second focus space, initiation of at least one action based at least in part on the variation, wherein the plurality of output devices comprises the display device.
