NIRS – Near Infrared Spectroscopy
Near Infrared Spectroscopy has become a widely used modality in research, be it in neuroscience, psychology or sport science. Neurolite offers you continuous wave near infrared spectroscopy solutions from Artinis (NL), a historical manufacturer renowned for quality products, knowledgeable support and reactive development.
You can choose from a variety of state-of-the-art devices, ranging from small, portable and wireless recorders for muscle application to high-end laser-based multi-channel systems for full brain mapping, passing through all-in-one fNIRS-EEG-tES configurations.
All systems come with an acquisition and analysis software.
Near infrared spectroscopy can be easily used to measure muscle oxygenation changes. In fact, sport science is one of the first research fields where mNIRS – muscle near infrared spectroscopy, found wide use application.
Measure both electrical potentials in brain tissue and changes in brain tissue oxygenation and blood volume.
The fNIRS mini devices developed by Artinis are lightweight, user-friendly, and comfortable, making them perfectly suited for studies on sensitive subjects, such as babies.
