Note: Wearable near-infrared spectroscopy imager for haired region PROJECT TITLE :Note: Wearable near-infrared spectroscopy imager for haired regionABSTRACT:A wearable optical topography system was developed that is based on near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) for observing brain activity noninvasively including in regions covered by hair. An avalanche photo diode, high voltage dc-dc converter, and preamplifier were placed in an electrically shielded case to be safely mounted on the head. Rubber teeth and a glass rod were prepared to clear away hair and reach the scalp. These devices realized for the first time a wearable NIRS imager for any region of the cortex. The activity in the motor cortex during finger tapping was successfully observed. Did you like this research project? To get this research project Guidelines, Training and Code...
