Abstract

Functional near-infrared imaging (fNIRS) systems can non-invasively measure brain activity using near-infrared light. Consequently, they are used in a wide variety of research fields. Of those fields, this article describes the NIRS neuroreha-bilitation system being developed to expand applications in the rehabilitation field.
