Cubic’s Intific combines its NeuroBridge
software platform with latest in visualization and gaming engines
for next-generation solutions
Cubic Global Defense (CGD), a business unit of Cubic Corporation
(NYSE: CUB), today announced its subsidiary, Intific, will showcase
its neuroscience software capabilities for assessment and
environment creation at Neuroscience 2016, held in San Diego from
November 12–16. Organized by the Society for Neuroscience, the
annual meeting gathers neuroscientists from around the world to
present emerging science, learn from experts, collaborate with
peers and explore new tools and technologies within the
neuroscience community.
At the meeting, Intific, Cubic’s hub of innovative software and
game-based solutions development, will demonstrate advanced
software applications in neurotechnology with the capability to
leverage cutting-edge technologies from the gaming industry with
its NeuroBridge™ software platform, which creates highly realistic
experimental environments for research, training and entertainment.
The combination of the NeuroBridge software with the latest in
visualization and gaming engines creates highly immersive,
realistic and reliable virtual environments for future-generation
training, experimenting and testing.
“The capability to have robust and realistic visual quality for
experiments in neurofeedback quantification of behavioral
performance allows you to make stronger claims in lab work, better
reflecting what happens in the real world,” said Tom F. Nugent III,
senior director of neurotechnology, new media and training
solutions at Cubic | Intific. “With NeuroBridge, we’re providing an
opportunity for next-generation neurofeedback by allowing the use
of biophysiological state measurements to seamlessly modulate and
change a simulation experience or game, in real-time to the subject
or player. This closed-loop capability allows for a truly immersive
experience for data collection, customization and tailoring to a
targeted audience.”
At the event, Intific will highlight the following neuroscience
software applications powered by NeuroBridge:
- Hocus Focus: Unveiled for the
first time at the 2016 Google X Gadget Fiesta, Hocus Focus is an
Intific-developed game that combines virtual reality, the Unreal
gaming engine and NeuroBridge in a world of wizards and spell
craft. Individual players’ brain activity influences gameplay as
they grab materials needed to create potions.
- N-Scope: This application
combines the state-of-the-art Vive virtual reality hardware system
with an electroencephalogram (EEG) headset that tracks players’
focus in a shooting gallery simulation. Using NeuroBridge, a meter
is built up based on the players’ focus; and once the meter is
filled, it can activate slowing of time in the gameplay to score
better on accuracy. As a result, slowing the time can improve
accuracy on fast moving targets.
- Memory Enhancement Tools:
Developed with the support of Department of Defense funding, this
software creates a virtual world as an experimental test bed to
enhance memory through real-time measurement of biophysiological
data and application of brain stimulation during napping to improve
performance.
