Multimodal Functional Imaging Sensor — Neptec Design Group proposes a novel medical diagnostic tool for human performance modelling and cognitive assessment. The team will investigate the practicality of integrating miniaturized biometric sensors measuring vital signs, with new sensors measuring the electroencephalography ( EEG ) and functional near infrared spectroscopy ( fNIRS ) of the prefrontal cortex to record electrical activity in the brain, and to monitor cognitive states. With the development of a miniaturized EEG / fNIRS -integrated sensor, Neptec Design Group aims to expand the number of biometric parameters that feed into analytical models of human health to achieve a more comprehensive monitoring of cognitive states.
