NVX-36T amplifier is used in training systems, clinical and scientific researches as a part of computer-based system. Each channel has a DIRECT CURRENT input cascade and individual 24-bit ADC for EEG sampling up to 10000 times per second.
Internal high resolution Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) current stimulator for producing DC or AC current via any EEG electrode or a set of electrodes.
Application software for settings of experiment, recording to EDF+, BDF+ and stimulation. Software library for self-design of user application.
• 32 EEG DC monopolar channels, 4 DC AUX bipolar channels for probes, 9/1 input/output triggers, OLED display, AC/DC DDS current generator. Stimulate using up to 31 electrodes.
• Dual use electrodes for EEG acquisition and stimulation. Used big-area sintered Ag/AgCl electrodes and innovative textile cap.
SOFTWARE
EEG amplifier NVX supports research software NeoRec and clinical software NEUROvisor.
Tetos expert software
NeoRec is a PC software designed for experiment plannig and for recording EEG and other biomedical signals during scientific or medical research, include Evoked Potentials preprocessing.
Record files can be saved in different formats (EDF+ 16 bit, BDF+ 24 bit, GDF 32 bit) or transmited online via stream LSL (Lab Streaming Layer) for analyze by third party software as MATLAB / EEGLAB, OpenViBE etc.
SDK for software development for PC and mobile applications is provided by the manufacturer upon request.
NEUROvisor is a clinical EEG software which available at PC and as mobile application.
Software NEUROvisor is a friendly one button solution, which provides standard montages and examination scenarios according to IFCN guidelines, automatic or semi-automatic examination procedure with voice prompts, automatic artifact rejection using ICA method, automatic generation of reports with manual editing capability.
Quantitative EEG presented by amplitude-frequency analysis of the main EEG rhythms, spectral analysis (charts and maps), independent component analysis.
