The Best Neuroscience Software
As a relatively new discipline, neuroscience has been studying the biological processes behind our behaviors for a few decades now. The years of research and theory have shown how certain emotions, thoughts, and behaviors look in certain brain areas. Thankfully, all research insights and tools from neuroscience can now be also used to understand the…

Neuromarketing Software Solution
Every human feeling, thought, and action is the result of neural activity in the brain. Behind all of our abstract definitions, we are biological beings run purely by biochemical processes. If all our actions are accompanied by physiological markers, this means that the internal processes behind our feelings, thoughts, and actions can be studied. This…

EMG Sensors: Everything You Need to Know
Every move we make is accompanied by complex physiological and chemical processes in our bodies. The technology that records this activity is called electromyography (EMG). When a muscle contracts, it generates a burst of electrical activity that cuts through tissue and bone, being easily detected on the surrounding skin areas. The detection happens through EMG…

EEG Channels: In-depth Look on Brainwave Mapping
Our brain is always active, at every moment, regardless of what we do. The cells, synapses, and neurons inside our skull interact with each other, resulting in electrical activity that is strong enough to be measured on the head surface. With neuroimaging tools such as electroencephalography (EEG), this electrical activity can be recorded in real-time…

Facial Expression Recognition (FER)
The face is the most complex nonverbal system in the body. It carries the expressions of the things we feel, our cognitive processes, and even our most hidden intentions. Emotions are no longer unquantifiable things – they can now serve as signposts to what’s happening in someone’s mind. With a better understanding of someone’s internal…
