Neurocommunication and neurotraining systems allows to:

type through the power of thought

train cognitive abilities of a brain

manage external devices

communicate in social networks

NeuroChat creates an opportunity for people with speech and movement difficulties to be able to communicate freely online.
It also allows people to train their cognitive abilities and develop resources of their brains.
About NeuroChat

"NeuroChat" communication system opens doors for people with diagnoses such as cerebral palsy, ALS, stroke, multiple sclerosis and various neurotraumas (head injury, spinal injuries etc); they are now given an opportunity to connect with their relatives, medical personnel, friends and the whole world

"NeuroChat" neurotraining system develops and trains cognitive abilities of an individual, such as: attention, memory, reaction speed etc., by analysing electrophysiological parameters of a brain.

NEUROCOMMUNICATOR
NeuroChat allows typing words on the computer screen or selecting pre-set commands without using speech or movement. While concentrating on a desired symbol or character on a virtual keyboard, user “mentally chooses” the object. Hence, letter-by-letter or with the use of other icons, individual is able to type out whole sentences. NeuroChat is not only created for communication among surrounding people but it is integrated with social network such as VK that allows people to text via SMS and other different messengers.

NEUROTRAINING PLATFORM
Based on NeuroChat system, number of applications was created to further develop attention, memory, reaction speed etc.,

ADDITIONAL SERVICES
In addition to online communication, NeuroChat allows you to use other Internet services that are integrated into the system. Users are able to read thematic news (sports, politics, culture, etc.), watch videos, keep notes and use diary.
We are currently working on connecting the capabilities of connecting external devices with the power of thought; for example, controlling a “Smart Home”, verticalizer, etc.

IQ CAFE
For those who want to improve such qualities of their brain as attention, memory, reaction speed and others, without buying expensive equipment, there is an IQ-cafe network at neurotraining centres with specialized rooms.
You can sign up for NeuroChat sessions now and “pump” your brain in Moscow; 7-minute walk from Kievskaya metro station.

Originally, communication system NeuroChat based on brain-computer interface technology was predominantly developed and aimed at people with limited movement and speech capabilities. This is a brand new system, expanding the capabilities of such people.

Project’s History
NEUROCHAT PROJECT

The NeuroChat project is an innovative platform of brain-computer interfaces for neurocommunication and neurotraining, which allows typing with mental effort, developing and training human cognitive functions, as well as controlling the electrophysiological parameters of the brain.

Mastering neurocommunication technologies, i.e. developing direct contact between human brain and other artificial systems is a serious step towards a potential breakthrough on creating symbiotic human-machine systems. Such systems, being a challenge in present time, will be able to provide global competitive advantage in network communication technologies in the future.

NeuroChat, being one of the technological implementations of future NeuroCommunication market, is a response to the social request of millions of people, not only in Russia but also around the world. The system is multilingual: nowadays users already have an access to interfaces and virtual keyboard for entering text in Cyrillic, Latin, Kazakh and Turkish alphabets, work is an underway to introduce more languages of Asian countries, Chinese being one of the first ones on the list.

NeuroChat has no language barriers; the system considers the language of the message receiver and auto-translates it online. By and large, the social network formed on the basis of NeuroChat is initially designed as an international one.

In February 2018, together with the University of Southern California, the world's first session of international neural communications of two people from different continents was held: the Russian user corresponded with the American, both participants had difficulty communicating using standard methods; they were choosing characters in their native language, and the system was automatically translating it from Russian to English and vice versa.

NeuroChat is not only a communication system for people with speech and movement restrictions, but also a platform for neurotraining. NeuroChat works with the help of mental efforts, that is, under the “direct control” of the user's cognitive sphere.

Due to the implementation of feedback between the computer and the brain, as well as specifically developed techniques, it is possible to train concentration and other cognitive functions, while controlling physiological parameters on the EEG, which significantly increases the effectiveness.

Cognitive sphere training is not only the improvement of one’s mental abilities in the present tense: attention, memory, reaction speed, etc., but also the possibility to reach and maintain a state of “bright mind” in old age. The World Health Organization points out that working with the cognitive sphere is an effective method of preventing dementia (senile dementia).

We live in an age of rapidly changing world with vast amounts of new information that needs to be processed and acquired. Cognitive training allows you to improve the "productivity" and "efficiency" of the brain, make reactions more "acute", and digestibility more effective.

NeuroChat is entirely Russian development. The system was one of the first projects of the National Technology Initiative that helped develop and promote new markets of NeuroNet.

NeuroChat is a hardware-software complex that includes the “Garant-EEG” neuro-headset and the special “ErgoStim” interface installed on the user's computer. The headset registers user's neurophysiological data and transforms his mental efforts into specific commands for a computer keyboard or other executive devices. By tranforming the mental decision-making process of choosing characters into a real set of symbols on the screen, a person can type letter by letter without the effort of voice and movement. A special user interface allows you to accelerate the process of typing using advanced technology similar to T9 (quick input system used in smartphones and Internet search engines), and provides online translation into the interlocutor's language.

The software is updated on regular basis, as well as various working methods with NeuroChat itself

HOW DOES IT WORK?

A comfortable headset is put on the user's head, designed for long-term wear, which registers EEG and transfers data to a computer or tablet via a Wi-Fi wireless channel. The user "chooses" the desired character on the computer screen by concentrating on his intention. The algorithm for determining mental commands is developed considering possible low attention of a user, as well as low motivational-emotional attitudes or increased mental fatigue. The technology’s success rate of “choosing” desired symbol on average is equal to 80-95%. The execution time depends on the number of objects on the screen; on average it takes 2-3 seconds to choose one object. NeuroChat is created and can be used not only for choosing characters but also for controlling sets of different hospital equipment such as “smart home” system. Currently, work is underway to integrate this system into NeuroChat.
