NIRxWINGS Advantages
The assumption is that we only measure evoked hemodynamic signal. In reality, we also measure non-evoked, systemic activity as well. When we perform a measurement, we need not only to measure the metabolic brain activity (i.e. HbO and HbR) due to the task we are interested in, but also to measure several global body parameters (e.g. HR, BR, Tonic/Phasic Skin Conductance, Blood Pressure, SpO2) that can help to explain more variance in the fNIR signal and improve the outcome the research.
With NIRxWINGS, you are able to move outside the lab to complex, dynamic and multi-sensory real-world environments to conduct systemic physiology augmented fNIRS (SPA-fNIRS). The signal processing algorithms can be optimized for artifact rejection and enable new experiments and the generation of databases.
NIRxWINGS connects to the NIRSport2 via Bluetooth dongle. NIRSport2 can connect wirelessly to the acquisition computer so you can collect physiological measurements concurrently with fNIRS data on the go.
