CortiVision SPOTLIGHT is the first fully integrated environment to combine NIRS technology with Virtual Reality (VR) for diagnostic and training applications.
The project „BioVR – Diagnostic and training system for attention functions in virtual reality” co-financed in the amount of PLN 934,915.00 (total expenditure PLN 1,182,228.00). The final version of the system is aimed at increasing the availability of brain activity testing equipment for science and diagnostics, enabling high-quality testing of brain activity in non-lab conditions, enabling more precise diagnostics of attention functions and innovative training of attention functions in VR.
Our system is created mainly for biofeedback practice enabling effective and engaging cognitive training based on near-infrared spectroscopy. The use of virtual reality allows for unprecedented control of the content that we provide to the test subject. For this reason, SPOTLIGHT is the perfect tool for scientists and professionals in the field of UX / UI and ergonomics.
The combination of the advantages of fNIRS mobility with the possibility of creating realistic training situations in the VR space will also prove useful in the area of sports and training for the needs of uniformed services.
Check the following examples of scenarios you can implement with SPOTLIGHT:
1. Online processing
2. Attention training with full concentration
You can build a classic cognitive experiment (like an n-back task) and then use the recorded data as a signal for classification by machine learning algorithms. In the next phase, the control of the VR scene can be done in a neurofeedback loop.
3. Motor functions training in your mind
4. Full control of the experimental environment
