fNIRS is increasingly applied in Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) systems due to its portability, ease of use, and robustness to motion. This post explores neurorehabilitation, neurofeedback, and daily-life applications of fNIRS-BCI, with study examples and Artinis device solutions.

Cognitive load measures how much mental effort someone is using at a given time. Integrating it into Tobii eye tracking workflows reveals not just where people look, but how hard their brain is working — unlocking new insights in usability research, sports performance, and training.

Mouse temperature is one of the easiest things to “handle” while quietly losing control. The main reason is simple: core temperature and surface (skin) temperature answer different questions. If you rely on only one, you get blind spots. This article covers the common monitoring approaches (continuous vs spot-check, core vs surface), shows where each fits (anesthesia, recovery, free-moving studies), and gives a few simple workflow recipes that improve stability without wrecking your throughput.
