Additional sources on neurofeedback
Software
BioExplorer (CyberEvolution, Inc.) Popular software for processing of physiological signals, enabling rich audio-visual biofeedback presentations. Data processing is configured graphically by combining universal blocks, allowing to create arbitrary biofeedback protocols. The feedback using video and audio files, DVD movies, audio CDs, MIDI synthesizer and various graphs is available. Many third party biofeedback games and additional, ready to use training protocols are available for BioExplorer. A user can create session reports and export data to a spreadsheet. The application is available in English. |

BioEra (Proatech) Advanced software for processing of bio-signals, enabling also graphical and audio biofeedback presentations. Data processing is designed graphically with basic blocks. Video and audio files, DVD, CD, MIDI, graphs and indicators can be used for biofeedback. BioEra is suitable for advanced computer users. It can be also used for research purposes. The application is available in English. |

Versatile, free biofeedback software, developed within the confines of OpenEEG project. It enables graphic configuration of physiological data processing and presentation of feedback signals with graphs, animations, MIDI synthesizer, video and audio files. The program is available in English. |
|
Mind-Body Training Tools (York Biofeedback) Software package for peak performance training with multimodal biofeedback. Optimal psychophysiological state is achieved with measurement and modification of several biosignals: brainwaves (EEG), Heart Rate Variability (HRV), muscle tension (EMG), breathing, skin temperature and galvanic skin response (GSR). Training videos and in-depth instructions are included in the package. |
