Description of the feedback animation: The training with Alpha-Theta Reflections allows the patient to reach a deep state through auditory and tactile feedback. Both 1-channel and 2-channel measurements can be used with this neurofeedback animation. With various sounds, this feedback animation creates relaxing soundscapes that promote the patient´s relaxation. An algorithm developed by Dr. Susan Othmer and Prof. Bacher calculates the deep relaxation neurofeedback from the EEG measurements of the alpha, theta, beta, and delta frequency bands.
Technical specifications: Various neurofeedback-dependent soundscapes and the possibility to use the tactile feedback, providing the feedback in this feedback animation. In addition, visual effects can also be added (for example fireplace).
