Company Description

A disruptive neurotechnology company, monitoring and interpreting EEG data from 3 electrodes for medical, wellness and gaming applications

Neurosteer is a disruptive neurotechnology company, focused on monitoring and interpreting clinical grade EEG data that is collected via a sleek, 3 electrode headband. Data is processed in real-time on the cloud, analyzed with proprietary signal processing and machine learning algorithms, and incorporated into medical, wellness and gaming applications. The Neurosteer platform allows developers to incorporate high level brain activity interpretation into IoT, wearable, and digital health tools. In addition to the platform, Neurosteer is developing two types of products: monitoring and neurofeedback. The neurosteer monitoring product for TBI and epilepsy patients assists doctors with disease management. The Neurosteer neurofeedback product enhances gaming experiences and personalizes wellness applications. Neurosteer’s platform won 1st prize at the Israel Brain Technology Hackathon, for “EmoChat” and at the HackGenY Hackathon for an emotionally personalized TV offering. IBM and Technion scientists won 1st prize for an application that detects ADHD using Neurosteer at the Technion Hackathon. At a Bar Ilan University Hackathon, neuroscientists won 1st prize for a fatigue detecting app, powered by Neurosteer. Neurosteer was featured on Israeli TV, demonstrating its application that helps an ALS patient move a bluetooth-operated ball using concentration modulation. The company received seed funding in September 2015. The proprietary technology, initially developed by Prof. Nathan Intrator at Tel Aviv University, is based on recent advances in harmonic analysis and big data analytics. It provides interpretation of cognitive and emotional brain activity information, using 3 electrodes, that is superior to current 32 and 64 electrode EEG electrode technology.
