EEG biofeedback

EEG biofeedback is an up to date therapeutic system able to cure low concentration ability, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), learning disability or depressions. Biofeedback systems based on EDG, ECG, EMG or EEG are used in numerous rehabilitation and therapeutic centers. Designed EEG biofeedback acquires EEG signal with a use of BIOPAC Acquisition unit. The signal is amplified, filtered and digitized. The software part of the system is designed in LabVIEW; it handles system control, data processing and data and feedback visualization. Two simple graphical games are included. The games are designed to increase the patient's efficiency of mind concentration or body and mind relaxation.
