Problem
Traditional methods for measuring brain and muscle oxygenation and hemodynamics require specialized equipment and controlled laboratory environments. This limits the ability to conduct non-invasive physiological monitoring in real-world settings or during dynamic activities. Consequently, understanding in-situ physiological responses during naturalistic behaviors or in diverse populations is challenging.
Solution
Artinis provides portable and user-friendly Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) devices designed for non-invasive monitoring of oxygenation status and hemodynamics in both brain and muscle tissue. These systems enable researchers and clinicians to gather high-quality physiological data across a wide range of applications, from laboratory studies to field research and clinical settings. The technology facilitates the study of physiological responses during movement, in various age groups, and in diverse environmental conditions, making advanced optical imaging more accessible.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes researchers in neuroscience, sports science, clinical rehabilitation, and psychology, as well as medical professionals and institutions requiring portable and non-invasive physiological monitoring solutions.
