Device for manipulating real objects synchronized with brain activity

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for manipulating real objects (22) and a real / virtual hybrid system for synchronizing neurophysiological activity with the perception and use of real objects. The device comprises: - an opaque case (2) having an opening (3) through which at least one hand can be inserted for manipulating objects inside the opaque case, - a screen (4) having at least two states, an opaque state in which the inside of the opaque case is invisible and a visible state in which the inside of the case is visible, - at least one detector (10) for detecting a user's reflection time, - a switch (9) for switching the screen to the visible state in response to a user command, and - a processing unit (8) for collecting signals from said at least one detector (10) and the switch (9).
