Interaction experiments 

At CNSR, EEG, fNIRS, and eye-tracking measurements can be conducted simultaneously with two participants. These types of interaction experiments are especially well suited to research questions focused on social coordination, joint attention, cooperation, or communication between individuals. The aim is to capture neurophysiological and gaze-based processes not only within individual participants, but also between people as they interact.

 

Examples of interaction experiments include hyperscanning studies that examine how neural signals between two individuals become coupled during joint tasks, cooperative decision-making, or social interaction. Gaze behavior, attentional focus, and physiological activity can also be recorded while two participants collaborate, communicate, solve problems together, or coordinate their actions.

For interaction experiments, CNSR offers systems for the parallel acquisition of EEG, fNIRS, and eye-tracking data from two participants. This may include, for example, two EEG controllers with battery packs, two EEG caps, mobile fNIRS components, or two eye-tracking systems. Below, we provide a brief overview of the equipment that can be used for simultaneous measurement with multiple participants.

Below, we provide an overview of our equipment. Detailed device specifications are available on our Equipment page. Please select EEG, fNIRS, or eye tracking.

Use of the equipment is not tied to a specific laboratory, allowing for a high degree of flexibility. See here for an overview of laboratories.

We are happy to advise you on selecting and configuring the equipment best suited to your project.
