Loreta Low Resolution Brain Electromagnetic Neuro-imagining techniques aim to represent the structure or functioning of the brain. They can be understood as an X-ray photograph of the brain that in the case of functional imagining will show the brain areas…
Non-invasive EEG recording techniques consist of the recording and interpretation of voltage fluctuations generated by the brain along the scalp, being measured by an array of electrodes that covers the whole scalp surface or a given area of interest. From…
EU-funded project AsTeRICS was born with the main objective of developing a support platform to facilitate and improve communication resources of people with motor disabilities, with no cognitive impairment, no perceptual limitations (neither visual nor auditory) and with basic skills…

Strokes are one of the leading causes of long-term motor disability among adults. Current rehabilitative interventions often don’t help patients with severe motor impairment. Brain computer interfaces (BCI) can provide an alternative approach for neuro-rehabilitation, particularly for severely impaired stroke…
It is not rare for some children to show difficulty keeping their attention on tasks like playing activities, for them to be forgetful, easily distracted, finding it difficult to focus and complete their schoolwork; it’s also common to seem like…
First of all, what the hell is Neurofeedback? Neurofeedback is a therapy, a tool, a technology that gives you the possibility of direct training your brain functions. Many cognitive processes and mental states such as stress, attention or relaxation can…
Neuroscience and in particular Brain Computer Interface seem to be a tough topic, hard to get started with. This post provides an overview of the top three free open source tools that will help you to quickly develop your Brain…
Probably you’ve heard about brain-computer interfaces, neural interfaces or brain-machine interfaces and as most people you may wonder what these topics are about. A Brain-Computer-Interface or BCI provides an alternative method for acting on the world. Brain waves can be…
