In order to overcome many of the drawbacks of traditional fiber-based fNIRS systems, LUMO fNIRS was specifically created to support real-world, naturalistic, and movement-based neuroscience research. Without being constrained by large optical fibers or rigid lab setups, its lightweight, fiberless HD-DOT headgear enables users to walk, engage with their surroundings, carry out motor tasks, and take part in realistic experiments.

Designed for Naturalistic Neuroscience Research

• Unlike conventional fibre-based fNIRS systems, LUMO fNIRS combines wearable comfort with high-density brain imaging, enabling researchers to study brain function during everyday activities while maintaining high-quality cortical measurements.

• Its fibreless design allows participants to move naturally throughout experiments without compromising research flexibility.

Real-World Research Applications

Researchers have successfully used LUMO across a wide range of real-world applications, including:

• Virtual reality (VR)

• Home-based brain imaging

• Clinical environments

• Neonatal intensive care units

• Pilot fatigue monitoring

• Surgical workload assessment

• Rehabilitation

• Sports science

• Hyperscanning

• Natural social interactions

Wearable HD-DOT Beyond the Laboratory

• Researchers have also demonstrated the modular system at home, using wearable HD-DOT imaging outside of conventional labs. This demonstrates LUMO's suitability for ecologically sound neuroscience research and validates studies carried out outside of traditional research facilities.

High-Quality Brain Imaging During Movement

LUMO fNIRS integrates wearable comfort with high-density brain imaging, in contrast to traditional neuroimaging systems that frequently require participants to remain motionless. This allows researchers to maintain high-quality cortical measurements while examining how the brain functions during daily activities.

Key Advantages for Real-World and Movement-Based Research
