Brite Lite

Truly accessible, wireless, and easy-to-use fNIRS system with enhanced possibilities

  • Measures oxy-, deoxy- and total hemoglobin concentration changes in brain tissue.

  • Quick set-up and easy use, in the lab and in the field.

  • Possible multi-power gain control allows selecting, automatically or manually, the optimal transmitter output setting for each channel and each participant.

  • Integrated 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope to measure movement data.

  • Bluetooth connection or offline recording with a high sample rate of up to 150 Hz.

  • Easy data acquisition and analysis with our superior software solutions, OxySoft and Brite Connect.

  • Hyperscanning possibilities.

  • The ideal starter device, 8 channels as standard or up to 10 channels with the flexibility package and easily upgradeable down the line.

  • Combinable with other techniques such as EEG and tES.

fNIRS for anyone and anywhere!

The Brite Lite is a lightweight (less than 250 g) and truly wireless fNIRS device that can measure up to 10 channels. The control unit can easily be attached to the headcap, enhancing freedom and mobility. Therefore, the device can be used in any desired setting - in the field, during exercise, in- and outside the lab - without the need for a backpack or other carrying solutions.

The Brite Lite and Brite Lite Frontal come with improved ambient light correction and multi-power gain control. This enables measuring fNIRS in multicultural subjects with different hair types and skin colors. Headbands and headcaps come in different sizes and can be adjusted, unlocking the possibility to measure both adults and children.

Brite Lite

Always hits the mark

The Brite Lite can be used to measure any cortical brain region and is optimized for measuring through hair.

Furthermore, the Brite Lite package includes a headcap that covers the complete brain, making it possible to place optodes wherever desired. Different optode templates are provided, which ensures the freedom to choose a template that covers the desired brain regions — for instance, larger areas, or multiple smaller brain regions simultaneously. It is also possible to add short separation channels to measure superficial tissue that can be used to improve signal quality.

Additionally, the Brite Lite is the perfect fit for hyperscanning studies (monitoring multiple subjects at the same time). Our proprietary software, OxySoft and Brite Connect, enable connecting multiple devices simultaneously to ensure accurate data synchronization.

Brite Lite Frontal

The Brite Lite Frontal makes measuring prefrontal brain activation easy and accessible.

For prefrontal brain measurements, the Brite Lite Frontal can be a worthwhile 8-channel alternative to its cortical counterpart. The device comes with a dedicated headband that covers the prefrontal area, is comfortable to wear, and guarantees a short set-up time. Next to that, optodes and optode templates are specifically designed to measure on the forehead. Hence, the Brite Lite Frontal can be perfectly used for instance in cognitive studies to measure prefrontal brain oxygenation in different fields, such as psychology, sports sciences, or neuroscience.

Opens the way to fNIRS

Upgrade possibilities

Both the Brite Lite and the Brite Lite Frontal can be upgraded down the line to fit your research needs. We offer different upgrade possibilities within the Brite family of devices to increase the number of channels, as well as to add features and enhance options to measure from further brain regions.

Both Brite Lite and the Brite Lite Frontal can be updated to a Brite, increasing the number of channels to up to 27. The Brite Lite Frontal can also be updated to a Brite Frontal that measures 24 channels, enlarging the prefrontal measurement possibilities. This allows you to choose a device that best suits your current situation and upgrade to a better fit when your needs evolve.

*Upgrade possibilities depend on availability and compatibility. Contact us to discuss a solution tailored to your needs.

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.

Real-time recording and processing of your (f)NIRS data

SOFTWARE solutions

With the Brite, we provide two different software solutions by default, which both were developed by Artinis. OxySoft is our dedicated software application used to collect, store, view, and analyze all necessary data. This user-friendly software is highly customizable to individual requirements and allows for display of your data in 3D in real-time. Brite Connect is our data acquisition software which aims on easy and quick recordings of your (f)NIRS data. It comes with a modern and sleek outlay, and enables easy measuring, viewing and exporting of data.
