Neurobit Systems news
BioEra software supports Neurobit Optima equipment
BioEra v. 2.3.86 or newer is required.
That release also includes some improvements for
Neurobit Lite devices (especially IrComm2k driver is no longer required for communication).
We introduce Neurobit Optima™ devices
This family of multichannel, portable, highly versatile equipment can be used both for neurofeedback (EEG biofeedback), as well as peripheral types of biofeedback, including EMG, HRV, GSR and TEMP. High measurement resolution and flexible configuration makes Neurobit Optima suitable also for physiological data acquisition in various research and technology applications.
Free Neurobit Recorder application
This simple, yet creating many possibilities application for Microsoft Windows 7/Vista/XP/2000 enables to record physiological signals collected wirelessly with Neurobit Optima or Neurobit Lite devices. Data can be stored in European Data Format (EDF) or text file, which can be imported by many signal analysis or spreadsheet applications, such as EEGLAB for Matlab or Excel. For Neurobit Optima devices, the Neurobit Recorder can also test electrode-skin impedances & input circuit continuity.
Neurobit API 3.0
The latest version of Application Programming Interface based on new concepts:
- uniformly supports all models of Neurobit devices with abstract device information services;
- can serve simultaneous measurements with several Neurobit devices in one application instance;
- supports various communication protocols, including Bluetooth.
EEG recordings in EDF files
API v. 2.1 includes an example application for recording of EEG signal from Neurobit Lite unit on a computer disk in EDF files. They can be read by software packages for EEG analysis, for example EEGLAB. This feature can be used for research purposes. The recording application is free.
Neurobit Lite firmware 2.8
Brainwave Monitor protocol
The new protocol is intended for monitoring of general brainwave state. It gives visual and audio information about basic 4 EEG bands (Theta, Alpha, SMR and Beta). The device's screen shows bar indicators and digital values of relative signal amplitudes in those bands. A dominant band is marked on the screen and signaled with sounds in phones. Each band is connected with specific instrument tone.
History of scores
Average scores of past neurofeedback sessions are stored in non-volatile memory of the device. A new function enables to browse list of the scores.
Neurobit API 2.0
The new version of Application Programming Interface has been adjusted to the most recent Microsoft operating system - Windows Vista. The interface is now easier in use and does not require additional driver of virtual serial port. The new version can also be used under older Windows systems (NT/2000/XP/2003 Server). The API is free of charge for non-commercial applications.
Neurobit Lite in Spanish
The device's menu and instruction manual are now also available in Spanish.
Neurobit Lite firmware 2.1
New built-in neurofeedback protocols and more
Deep relaxation training
High theta band protocol for closed eyes. It promote mind/body integration, self-regulation and well-being. The protocol can also be helpful in classical meditation.
Alpha-theta training
Alpha-theta crossover protocol supports visualization, meditation, enhanced creativity and performance, to name a few. Similar training is often used for recovery from trauma and addictions as well.
The protocol is protected against shift to lower frequency theta waves, which could cause drowsiness. When such waves are becoming too high, warning signal is generated.
Application Programming Interface (API)
Software developers of PC applications processing EEG data can now integrate their software with Neurobit Lite device even faster and easier, using our API. It can be adopted to any operating system and programming language. API is free of charge.
Previous extensions for Neurobit Lite
- Wireless connectivity with PC, using IrDA standard of infrared communication.
- Interoperation with popular biofeedback software: BioExplorer and BioEra.
- EEG sampling frequency up to 1024Hz is now available.
- Firmware download to the device, with free upgrades available in the web.
Wireless connectivity with PC, using IrDA standard of infrared communication.
Wide compatibility with systems and platforms. Many portable computers are equipped with built-in infrared hardware. For desktop PCs not including the hardware, non-expensive adapters for USB port are available.
Interoperation with popular biofeedback software: BioExplorer and BioEra.
It allows additional EEG data processing, storage and presentations. With real-time processing on PC, user-defined training protocols are also accessible. Functional demo version of BioExplorer and free version of BioEra are available.
EEG sampling frequency up to 1024Hz is now available.
The device enables high EEG sampling frequency (up to 1024 Hz) and wide frequency band (up to 100 Hz). Both parameters can be controlled by the user for measurements transmitted to PC.
Firmware download to the device, with free upgrades available in the web.
We still develop out products. And biofeedback is constantly enriching field. You can successively receive new device features and improvements - without physical unit delivery to support service, and with no costs.
