Brite Frontal
A wearable, user-friendly, and comfortable fNIRS system for prefrontal measuring.
Measures oxy-, deoxy- and total hemoglobin concentration changes
Completely covers the prefrontal cortex.
The multi-power gain control allows one to select, automatically or manually, the optimal optical settings for each channel and each participant.
Integrated 3-axis accelerometer & 3-axis gyroscope to measure movement data.
Easy analysis of your data with our superior analysis software; OxySoft.
Wireless connection or offline recording with a high sample rate.
Frontal measuring at its BEST
The Brite Frontal is a user-friendly, plug-and-play NIRS device with almost no setup time. It works with multi-wavelength LEDs, giving you continuous and real-time feedback in our data analysis software that is delivered with the system.
The Brite Frontal comes with a multi-power gain control. This feature enables users to measure at four different power levels and auto-power settings per channel, enabling optimal data quality across a wide range of age, skin color, and hair type.
The Brite Frontal provides a fixed optode outlay with an inter-optode distance of 30 mm, optimized for measurements in the pre-frontal brain area.
The Brite Frontal weighs only 300 grams in total! This portability in combination with the soft neoprene headband makes monitoring the brain oxygenation of the elderly, children, and vulnerable patients comfortable and easy.
Boundless possibility
Weighing only 300 grams and with almost no set-up time, the Brite Frontal enables studying the prefrontal cortex activation in almost every setting!
The Brite Frontal can be used independently or combined with another Brite to perform hyperscanning.
Easy to use
The headband of the Brite Frontal is quickly taken on and off and comfortable. This makes the device user-friendly and suitable for measuring with sensitive participants.
Suitable for any settings
As the device is wireless and wearable, the Brite Frontal enables freedom for both researcher and research participant. It is also optimized with ambient light correction, making it possible to reliably measure prefrontal cortical activity in real-life settings.
Top-notch data quality
The Brite Frontal offers improved data accuracy with reduced system noise. The dynamic range has been improved, resulting in an increased system sensitivity.
Endless possibilities
BRITE Frontal APPLICATIONS
The Brite Frontal can be used to measure oxygenation in the prefrontal cortex. Due to its comfort and ease of use, participants are even able to perform physical activities like walking and cycling! This wearability makes monitoring prefrontal brain oxygenation of elderly, children and vulnerable patients comfortable and easy. The device is connected with a long-ranged Bluetooth antenna to the laptop and incorporated with an integrated 9-axis movement sensor to measure motion data.

fNIRS made easy
The NIRS technique
Optical oximetry and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in particular is a tool for non-invasively assessing the oxygenation status and hemodynamics of various organs, e.g., muscle and brain. They rely on mainly two characteristics of human tissue. Firstly, the relative transparency of tissue for light in the NIR range, and secondly the oxygenation-dependent light absorbance of hemoglobin.
