Hardware/Software

Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (1200S)

Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIR) measures cognitive load through the change of blood oxygenation and blood volume related to human brain function. The Lab has fNIR Model 1200S. Model 1200S has a pad that includes 16 channels (16 detectors) distributed over the prefrontal cortex. Running fNIR experiment needs two software programs: COBI Studio and fnirSoft.
