This opens doors to non-invasive, accessible communication tools for individuals who otherwise can’t express themselves.

🟡 Real-time signal processing
🔵 High classification accuracy for covert speech
🟡 A step closer to practical BCI for assistive tech

The researchers used a BCI paradigm to distinguish between spoken and imagined words, showing that even imagined speech can be detected through prefrontal hemodynamic responses.

explored how fNIRS-based BCIs can classify both overt (spoken) and covert (imagined) speech, offering promising communication avenues for people with locked-in syndrome.

🔐 Imagine being unable to speak or move, yet still able to communicate… through your brain signals alone.
In a fascinating new study, Nlandu Kamavuako et al.

Wearable neurotechnology is turning brain signals into actionable information —anytime, anywhere.

🔵 Dolmans et al. used deep learning to classify mental workload, paving the way for adaptive systems in demanding environments. #MentalWorkload #fNIRS #BCI

🧠 fNIRS-BCI in action. Real people. Real signals.

What does #fNIRS #BCI look like in practice?
🟡 Ruotsalo et al. monitored affective responses in crowds, enabling large-scale annotation of shared experiences. #AffectiveComputing

We wish all teams involved a successful mission aboard the ISS and look forward to the scientific insights generated through this collaboration.

From spelling devices for locked-in patients to cognitive workload assessment in high-stress environments, fNIRS is helping decode brain signals into actionable commands. And thanks to recent advances, real-time processing is getting faster and more accurate.

🧠 Curious how brain-computer interfaces actually work in real time?
Turns out, NIRS is playing a surprisingly powerful role, especially when portability, movement, or cost are limiting factors for EEG and fMRI.

...the improved Brite family raises the bar for wearable #fNIRS research across all environments and participant groups.

🔵 Audience coherence was stronger than that of the performers, challenging assumptions about who’s more “in sync”
🟡 Musical complexity and sound pressure shaped the level of coherence, adding a physiological layer to how we perceive performance

Using heart rate data from both sides of the stage, the team explored how live music fosters shared physiological experiences.

🟡 Musicians and listeners showed signs of heart rhythm coupling, hinting at a deeply embodied group experience

🎻 What happens to our hearts when we listen to live music together?
In a fascinating new study, Müller et al. investigated cardiac synchrony between orchestra musicians and audience members across real-world performances.

Measuring brain activity during everyday tasks and real-world environments delivers more realistic insights into brain function. In #sportsscience, portable #fNIRS enables brain monitoring on the football field, even during penalty kicks 🏃‍♂️‍➡️⚽️

The results revealed shifts in functional connectivity that hint at how yoga might influence cognition and mood.

This kind of mobile brain imaging, made possible with wearable fNIRS, opens new doors for understanding the neural impact of real-life interventions.

🧘‍♀️ Measuring brain activity in motion? Yes, you can.

In their recent study, Goodrick et al. used the Brite to examine resting-state brain dynamics before and after yoga practice, outside the lab and in a naturalistic setting.

The results revealed clear social preferences and distinct fronto-temporoparietal connectivity patterns, particularly in girls, highlighting the neural basis of early #SocialBehavior.
