Integrated systems for providing audio, video, light stimulus and/or measuring brain activity through the use of one or more electrodes, e.g., EEG dermatrodes, are described. A system, e.g., a head mounted VR device, for providing stimulation to a user and detecting user responses to said stimulation includes a head mount, a plurality of light emitting elements, e.g., sets of LEDs, a housing secured to said head mount, and at least one or more electrodes for making contact with skin of a user. In various embodiments, the system further determines a user's mental state and provides audio and/or visual feedback to the user.

The present invention relates to a system (10) for functional magnetic resonance image data acquisition. The system comprises an input unit (20), a magnetic resonance imaging “MRI” device (30), an electroencephalography “EEG” data acquisition device (40), and a processing unit (50). The input unit is configured to provide task based information to a patient, wherein the task based information extends over a period of time. The MRI device is configured to acquire functional magnetic resonance imaging “fMRI” data relating to brain activity of the patient, wherein the fMRI data extends over the period of time. The EEG device is configured to acquire EEG data relating to electrical activity of the brain of the patient, wherein the EEG data extends over the period of time. The processing unit is configured to utilize the task based information that extends over the period of time and the EEG data that extends over the period of time to determine at least one first sub-set period of time over the period of time. The processing unit is configured to determine an action associated with acquisition of the fMRI data over the at least one first sub-set period of time.

The present disclosure describes a method for neuromodulating a subject, comprising providing (i) a cognitively engaging content, and (ii) a gamma oscillation inducing waveform, wherein said gamma oscillation inducing waveform: comprises an intensity that renders said gamma oscillation inducing waveform imperceptible to said subject; and causes a therapeutic improvement in a cognitive function, thereby neuromodulating said subject.

In some embodiments, a method of increasing cognitive function and/or treating a disease or disorder associated with decreased cognitive function in a subject is provided. Treating a subject with an glutamate receptor agonist can include identifying the subject as an glutamate receptor agonist responder. The method can further include obtaining an electroencephalogram (EEG) signals from the subject. The method can further include measuring one or more EEG metrics, thereby identifying the subject as a glutamate receptor agonist. Further provided non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code with instructions for identify glutamate receptor agonist responders

A sensor device includes a sensor housing defining a channel extending along a channel axis through the housing from a first side of the sensor housing to a second side of the sensor housing opposite the first side, at least one contact electrode extending from the first side of the housing, an electrically-conducting lead attached to the housing in electrical communication with the at least one contact electrode, and a locking mechanism located in the channel permitting one-way axial motion of a thread threaded through the channel from the first side to the second side.

The present technology relates to a control device and a control method capable of performing authentication with higher safety using brain information.

Provided is a control device including a processing unit configured to perform control of a first authentication process of authenticating a user on the basis of first registration information based on first brain information of the user measured in response to a replay of a first induction medium, and control of a registration process of a second registration information used for a second authentication process of authenticating the user on the basis of second brain information of the user measured in response to a replay of a second induction medium different from the first induction medium. For example, the present technology can be applied to a measurement device capable of measuring brain information.

Apparatus, system, and computer readable media determine the probability of visual recognition of an image by a subject using electroencephalography (EEG) corresponding to a Visual Evoked Potential (VEP). The apparatus comprises means for presenting a series of visual stimuli corresponding to said image to evoke EEG signals. The visual stimuli of the image are presented in an orientation sequence based on a timing cycle. At least one prism is provided for placement in front of the series of visual stimuli corresponding to said image. The EEG signals evoked in response to said visual stimuli and said prism placed in front of said visual stimuli are recorded and processed by a processor. VEP is generated corresponding to the presence of a shift and thereby provides object statistic reliability of the visual recognition of the image by the subject.
