We have collected a few notable publications detailing EDA data acquisition in the neuromarketing field: Auditory interfaces in commercial vehicles: In-vehicle auditory displays must be able to convey important safety and car notifications, such as check […]
While the Biopac Student Lab is known as the “Gold Standard” in life science education, the hardware can also be used to perform physiology research. We have gathered a few citations highlighting this function of the MP36 System and BSL software: Microsaccades and Heartbeat: Microsaccades and slower components of fixational eye movements are known as […]
BIOPAC solutions have been used in a variety of cognitive studies, many pertaining to autism research. We have collected a series of studies focusing on autism based research using BIOPAC systems: Discourse and fNIR: Since discourse is a commonly occurring communication act, it is a focus of treatment for individuals with cognitive communication disorders. Michael […]
Brain-Body Interactions: While it is generally agreed that the brain influences the physiological condition of the body, it is unclear what areas of the brain affect the body differently. Christine C. Guo, et al showed that the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD) is associated with reduced baseline cardiac vagal tone and that it correlates […]
