Project description
Personalised home therapy for brain disorders
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) impose significant burdens on patients and their families. The EU-funded Brainhero–Embracing Neurodiversity project addresses these challenges by introducing the first medically certified home-based EEG (Electroencephalography) neurofeedback product tailored for children with ASD and ADHD. This solution integrates portable, cost-effective hardware with advanced software, enabling mobile training and providing additional features for therapists. The user-friendly nature of the product ensures that the setup time is reduced from 15 minutes to just 2 minutes. It also reduces the costs of EEG hardware by 10 times and therapy expenses by 60 %. By offering therapy sessions at home, it allows for flexible scheduling to accommodate individual needs.
Objective
Brainhero provides the first medically certified home-based EEG neurofeedback product with personalized therapy for children with ASD and ADHD.
It integrates portable low production-cost hardware with its software, providing mobile training and advanced features for therapists. The set offers simplicity and readiness to use, reducing the setup time from 15 to 2 minutes. In addition, Brainhero reduces 10x the cost of the EEG hardware and 60% of the cost of therapy, enabling scaling up to many patients.
With home therapy, our users gain convenience, eliminate travel and other logistic problems, enable adaptation of individual scheduling, and benefit from the comforting and known environment. Furthermore, personalization of the training software according to a patient’s individual brain profile optimizes training towards neurotypical levels.
Brainhero increases 10x adequate training time compared with clinical 1-to-1 sessions once a week and drastically reduces overhead for parents.
