NVX-36T

OVERVIEW

Research system for DC EEG acquisition and transcranial electrical stimulation (tDCs/tACs/tRNS)
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

For managing transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) and EEG recording in research and clinical practice, the NeoRec and TetosExpert software solutions are used. NeoRec is designed for EEG recording and analysis in research applications, while TetosExpert is focused on scientific tasks, including stimulation control.

NeoRec allows recording EEG data during scientific and medical studies. It supports data storage in various formats (EDF+ 16-bit, BDF+ 24-bit, GDF 32-bit) and real-time data streaming via Lab Streaming Layer (LSL) for compatibility with external software such as MATLAB, EEGLAB, OpenViBE, and others.

TetosExpert is designed for configuring and managing stimulation in research projects. It enables setting parameters for tDCS, tACS, and tRNS with flexible electrode positioning, using custom waveform signals (.WAV), and real-time process control.

On request, additional software modules are available for clinical applications:

Neurovisor – a clinical EEG software solution supporting IFCN-recommended montages, automatic or semi-automatic EEG recording with voice prompts, built-in artifact suppression algorithms (ICA), and automated report generation.

Neurovisor-tES – a clinical module for transcranial stimulation, including electrode montage selection, real-time current and impedance monitoring, and automated report generation with stimulation graphs.

These software solutions provide researchers and clinicians with precise tools for managing stimulation and EEG recording, ensuring flexibility in procedure setup and control over neurophysiological signals.
