s June 23 - 25, 2008: g.tec BCI workshop at Cybertherapy 2008, San Diego, US

 

 

Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) convert brain signals into output signals for communication and control. We invite you to visit the BCI workshop in San Diego. In this Workshop, we will provide hands-on practical tutorials of this technology using two different BCI approaches - P300 and motor commands.

s September 17, 2008: g.tec BCI workshop in Graz, Austria

 

 

We invite you to the one-day BCI workshop which gives you the chance to create your own BCI experiments and to learn more about g.tec's hard- and software products just one day before the 4th International Brain-Computer-Interface Workshop and Training Course at the University of Technology in Graz organized by Prof. Pfurtscheller's lab.

s g.Recorder

 

is a novel, user friendly software package for the recording of biosignal data such as EEG, ECoG, ECG, EOG, EMG and sensor data. It has been designed for working with the g.tec biosignal amplifiers g.USBamp, g.BSamp and with the portable device g.MOBIlab+. g.Recorder offers next to raw data inspection also optionally the extraction and presentation of different parameters, e.g. the heart rate, the compressed spectral array and the cerebral function. The data can be exported seamlessly to g.tec's biosignal analysis software g.BSanalyze for in depth offline evaluation and data processing.

s g.FEATUREmonitor

 

is a high performance biosignal recording system with the ability of continuous observation of EEG and ECG activities to detect seizures and impaired brain functions in neonates. The system is used to predict the outcome and monitor the effect of therapies. Of special interest is the ability to record raw EEG data of 16 - 128 channels simultaneously and to calculate parameters in real-time (aEEG, heart-rate, heart-rate variability, compressed spectral array). The system is designed for long-term investigations and clinical research.

s g.CFMtoolbox

 

The CFM-Toolbox allows to calculate the amplitude integrated EEG (Cerebral Function Monitor - CFM signal) from any recorded EEG channel. Additionally the aEEG patterns are classified into specific patterns such as continuous voltage, discontinuous voltage, bursts, iso-electric patterns ... The toolbox is of special interest for the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
