The Power of mind: Blocking visual perception by hypnosis
In our recently published study, we show that a blocking suggestion given under hypnosis has significant impact on visual perception and underlying brain responses measured via EEG.
Tricks and Tips in BrainVision Recorder – Part I
Our Analyzer 2 ‘Tricks and Tips’ support articles were very popular with our users. So, we have put together some more ‘Tricks and Tips’ for you, but this time it’s BrainVision Recorder’s turn. Here we present ten handy hints to help you get the most from your Recorder software.
Understanding how sleep affects the human thalamus with EEG-fMRI
We are able to show using EEG-fMRI that the functional connectivity of the thalamus is generally increased by sleep onset and depth, and that sleep has a differential effect on sub-divisions of the thalamus. EEG-fMRI is a vital tool to understand the impact of sleep on cortical and subcortical processing.
New Licensing Model available for Brain Products Software
We would like to announce a change in the licensing structure of our analysis and recording Software BrainVision Analyzer and BrainVision Recorder. Overall, this change leads to a major reduction of prices for the initial purchase of a Brain Products Software product (BrainVision Analyzer and BrainVision Recorder) and increased simplicity for the ordering process.
Getting EEG data in real-time for BCI, Neurofeedback and more
In the past years there has been an increased need and demand for real-time access to EEG data for purposes of quality control, parametrization, features extraction and online feedback. In this article, I will explore the concept of remote data access (RDA) and demonstrate how to access EEG data in real-time from our amplifiers.
New insights in motor imagery from real-time EEG feedback during concurrent fMRI
Motor imagery (MI) combined with neurofeedback has been suggested as a promising rehabilitation approach for paralyzed individuals. EEG based MI feedback is particularly promising for therapeutic applications. Yet whether EEG feedback indeed targets specific sensorimotor activation patterns cannot unambiguously inferred from EEG alone. This article demonstrates that online correction of gradient artifacts and ballistocardiogram artifacts enables reliable MI EEG feedback inside the MRI scanner.
Want to test all our software for two months? – Check out the “Application Suite Trial Package”
Great news, the Brain Products Application Suite Trial Package is still being offered! This package is an easy and convenient way to evaluate our software solutions for EEG/EP recordings and analyses.
Recording EOG signals with actiCHamp – active or passive electrodes?
The artifacts produced by eye movements and blinks are problematic for the EEG researcher and can have a negative impact on results. Advanced algorithms (e.g. Ocular Correction ICA) can be very effective in correcting the ocular related artifacts, however in some cases a dedicated ocular channel is required. Here, we will describe various approaches on how to use an actiCHamp amplifier to record an Electrooculogram (EOG).
