Functional brain imaging systems are a primary focus at Archinoetics, specifically the development of hardware, software, and applications that expand and apply our understanding of how the brain works. Using functional near-infrared imaging (fNIR), we can detect, in real-time, useful information about the brain's response to various environmental stimuli. fNIR also allows severely disabled individuals to control computers and their environment through actively modulating their cognitive activity.

For a list of publications and conference papers on our fNIR research, please see our publications page.
