With BrainVision Recorder 2 we also introduced the new BrainVision Recording Format (BVRF). It offers modern features like JSON meta data and multi-participant recordings while remaining BIDS-friendly for easy file conversion. Find out how to access the newly recorded files and how to keep working with data in new and established ways.
Phonetic convergence—the unconscious adaptation of speech to match interlocutors —is thought to arise from predictive mechanisms. Our research reveals that motor-based predictions enhance neural sensitivity to listener-matched features. This discovery highlights how internal signals orchestrate sensorimotor interactions to guide vocal imitation.
With the MATLAB® transformation, BrainVision Analyzer 2 offers you a powerful tool to extend its functionality beyond Transformations and Solutions, to cover an even wider variety of signal processing techniques.
Creating event markers with hardware triggers requires trigger codes. Designing codes for a specific study can be unintuitive and error prone. Here we provide you with a practical strategy to design trigger codes with a structured trigger plan. To help you to create a trigger plan, we introduce trigger2marker, a freely downloadable MATLAB® tool.
Check out Brain Products’ new account on the MATLAB® File Exchange. From now on, we will upload all the MATLAB®-based code for the various interactions between MATLAB® and our hardware- and software to this hub. In a first step, we have provided example code for the Remote Control Server 2 (RCS) and Remote Data Access (RDA). In addition, we uploaded the code mentioned in the "How to design trigger codes ..." article - published in this issue of our newsletter.
In our last newsletter issue, we proudly introduced the new TriggerBox Plus. Now, we want to provide some more information on how this new and enhanced version of the TriggerBox changes the way you can interact with this device and how you can make the best use of its new features.
This research combines mobile EEG and augmented reality (AR) to study cognition. Participants completed three face inversion tasks: (1) computer-based, (2) mobile EEG with photographs, (3) mobile EEG with AR. We find face inversion effects in all tasks, concluding that mobile EEG and AR is a promising approach for research.
Here we introduce a step-by-step guide for both LSL markers and hardware triggers with Brain Products and various stimulus presentation software programs that will ensure you are ready to start your experiments with the most accurate timing possible.
Until recently, there has been little information about EEG data quality and safety when used with newer multi-band (MB) fMRI sequences. Here, we measure the relative heating of a MB protocol compared with a standard single-band (SB) protocol considered to be safe. We also evaluated EEG quality recorded concurrently with the MB protocol on humans.
More and more applications require a setup which allows, data access within minimal time, but maximal reliability. We recently released TurboLink for actiCHamp (Plus) and partnered up with sync2brain and their bossdevice RESEARCH to offer a solution that makes sure you can always rely on the performance of your hardware setup.
