65 results about "Biofeedback eeg" patented technology

Neurofeedback (NFB), also called neurotherapy or neurobiofeedback, is a type of biofeedback that uses real-time displays of brain activity-most commonly electroencephalography (EEG), to teach self-regulation of brain function. Typically, sensors are placed on the scalp to measure activity, with measurements displayed using video displays or sound.

Artifact detection and correction system for electroencephalograph neurofeedback training methodology

The method for simultaneously and concurrently identifying and quantifying a wide variety of types of facial electromyographic (EMG) and eye movement electrooculargraphic (EOG) activity, which naturally contaminate electroencephalographic (EEG) waveforms in order to significantly improve the accuracy of the calculation in real-time of the amplitude and / or coherence of any brainwave activity for any chosen frequency bandwidth for any number of electrode placements. This multi-level, widely or universally applicable, pre-defined pattern recognition artifact detection and correction system provides a method for enhancing EEG biofeedback training by detecting and eliminating any brief, contaminated epoch of EEG activity from being included in the calculation and analysis of the EEG signal. The method and apparatus disclosed herein make it possible to provide without any interruption visual, auditory and / or tactile feedback of a “true” EEG signal that through operant conditioning learning principles enables individuals to more quickly and easily learn to control their brainwave activity using neurofeedback.

Wearable Monitoring and Training System for Focus and/or Mood

A wearable signal acquisition and computerized display device including at least one first sensor configured to measure at least one of the following attributes from a subject wearing the device: attention, focus, concentration, alertness, and mood. The device has a heads-up display or goggles, glasses, or another head piece having lenses. The measurement is derived from the subject's brainwaves by use of one or more algorithms. The subject wearing the device receives neurofeedback data based on this measurement through the projected image to train them how to control attention, mood, etc. and improve understanding as to how various external stimuli in the real world or virtual world impact these attributes. In one variation the sensors measure brainwave signals at two positions of the subject and use the difference in these measurements to derive an attention indicator signal used to provide neurofeedback.

Repetitive visual stimulation to EEG neurofeedback protocols

An EEG neurofeedback and total evoked brain activity measurement methods utilize minimum ambient EEG activity as stimulant frequencies. A method of using repetitive stimulation in conjunction with EEG neurofeedback protocols is described. Electrodes, attached to a subject's scalp, transmit electroencephalographic (EEG) signals from the subject. These signals are in response to the visual and / or auditory stimuli being displayed to the subject. The resultant EEG signals are then filtered at pre-defined frequencies or frequency bands. The output from the filtered EEG signals is then analyzed and monitored for short-term state changes. The invention also uses flicker stimulation, real-time signal filtration and feedback, feedback during audio and visual stimulation derived from filtered outputs, and fundamental and integral harmonics in combination with total evoked response.

Color-based neurofeedback

A preferred embodiment of the invention includes an amplifier that receives EEG signals from electrodes (e.g., adhesive electrodes, SQUID sensors, etc.) on or adjacent the person's scalp, a low or band pass filter, a color processor and a display. The color processor converts an aspect of one or more channels of the person's EEG signal(s) to a color and shows that color to the person on the display. The aspect of the EEG that is converted to color can be the frequency or the amplitude of the person's EEG signal(s). If EEG amplitude is used in the conversion process, the instantaneous, average or peak amplitude can be used. This process is dynamic, meaning that the system repeatedly converts the EEG signal to color. Conventional adhesive electrodes or non-adhesive sensors can be used to detect the person's brain activity.
