BRAINACCESS PRODUCTS ARE SUITABLE FOR
Neuroscience Research
BrainAccess is optimized for experiments in the field, combining high-quality data with portability and ease of setup.
Cognitive Neuroscience
Studying attention, perception, memory, and decision-making in both lab and real-world environments. Measure alpha oscillations, event-related potentials (ERPs) in response to stimuli, and more.
Clinical Research
Investigating biomarkers of neurological conditions such as epilepsy, or sleep disorders. Dry-electrode systems reduce setup time, making EEG practical for patient studies outside the clinic.
Naturalistic Experiments
With mobile EEG, researchers can move beyond controlled labs and study brain activity in everyday environments, such as while watching films, or engaging in conversations.
Lowering Barriers
By being easy and affordable, BrainAccess empowers universities, educators, companies, and independent labs to explore the brain more flexibly than ever before.
A pilot study [1] leveraging the BrainAccess MINI kit examined the potential of continuous brain activity monitoring to predict life-threatening hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic episodes. Preliminary findings suggest this approach holds real promise, laying the groundwork for early-warning predictive algorithms that could act ahead of conventional symptom onset.
Open dataset available
An open dataset collected with BrainAccess MIDI is available [2]. The dataset focuses on how driving experience has an impact on attention and cognitive control in young adults and includes precisely timed event markers and detailed participant metadata such as driving experience, mobile phone usage, and self-reported emotional state prior to the experiment.
Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI)
BrainAccess is designed to facilitate translating neural activity into control signals, enabling direct interaction between the brain and external devices.
Assistive Technology
Enabling communication or mobility aids for individuals with severe motor impairments, such as controlling a cursor, wheelchair, or robotic arm using brain signals.
Gaming and Entertainment
Creating immersive neuroadaptive games where difficulty adjusts based on engagement or emotional state.
Hands-Free Interfaces
Using motor imagery and custom protocols to control drones, smart home devices, or augmented reality systems without physical input.
Custom BCI apps
BrainAccess hardware and SDKs allow developers to prototype and test BCI applications rapidly, supporting innovation in both academic and commercial settings.
In two recent studies [3, 4] using our BrainAccess MIDI device, researchers explored a novel BCI system designed to enhance attention in children and teenagers by dynamically adjusting environmental distractions (such as temperature, lighting, noise, and font size). The system achieved 87% classification accuracy, effectively distinguishing between focused and unfocused mental states. Moreover, by adapting on the fly, the system improved kids’ focus by 57%.
Our BrainAccess MINI was featured in a recent study combining applied Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and prosthetic control [5]. The work aims to create a new synchronized dataset for prosthetic users, enabling meaningful fusion of EEG and EMG signals and supporting machine learning models that can run efficiently on low-power embedded devices.
Mental State Monitoring
Our products are optimal to study cognitive and mental states in real-world settings and to develop applications that adapt to users’ needs.
Fatigue and Vigilance Tracking
Monitoring drowsiness in drivers or pilots, alerting them when attention levels drop.

Well-being and Meditation
Providing neurofeedback to help individuals achieve relaxed or focused mental states during mindfulness and wellness practices.
Neuroadaptive AI Systems
Developing systems that adapt to changes in EEG signal to adjust responses, UX, or interactions in real time.
A group of researchers using BrainAccess EEG devices developed an affective computing system that classified emotions into three key dimensions: valence, arousal, and dominance. Using machine learning algorithms they achieved high accuracy in recognizing emotions from EEG data [6]. The research is now expanding into clinical settings, with a focus on emotion recognition in autism to support more effective therapeutic interventions [7].

Effects of AI on Learning
Evaluate how AI tools influence teachers’ and students’ attention, cognitive effort, and workload during the educational process.
Teaching neuroscience and human-computer interaction can be difficult without practical, hands-on tools. BrainAccess makes EEG approachable and engaging for classrooms, workshops, and training programs, giving students the chance to explore brain activity in real time.
Beyond teaching, EEG can also become a tool inside the classroom itself. With BrainAccess, educators and researchers can non-invasively measure students’ and teachers’ engagement, attention, workload, cognitive effort, and even aspects of well-being during the learning process.
The Artificial Intelligence Tools for General Education Teachers (AItools4Teachers) project investigates how AI technologies can improve teachers’ work efficiency in Latvian K–12 schools, with a focus on non-contact time (NCT) tasks such as lesson planning, material creation, assessment, and communication.
The initiative aims to identify ethical, effective, and practical ways for educators to integrate AI into their daily workflow to enhance productivity, well-being, and work-life balance.
Its key goals include reviewing international best practices, evaluating how AI tools influence teachers’ NCT efficiency and well-being, and developing a national strategy for implementing AI in K–12 education.
As part of the project, BrainAccess HALO devices will be used to monitor how teachers’ brain activity and cognitive state change while using AI tools, providing objective insights into the cognitive load and efficiency effects of AI-assisted workflows.
