Frequently asked questions
What does fNIRS add over regular EEG?
fNIRS measures blood-oxygen changes in the prefrontal cortex — a window into mental effort and focus that complements EEG's electrical activity.
Can I really sleep in it?
Yes — the S line's fabric band is designed for overnight wear, and sleep sessions include responsive soundscapes.
