What is Neurotechnology?
Defined as
i) technical and computational tools that
- measure and analyse chemical and electrical signals in the nervous system to identify the properties of nervous activity,
-understanding how the brain works and diagnose pathological conditons or contral external devices (neuroprostheses and brain machine interfaces), and
ii) interact with the nervous system to change its activity,
for example to restore brain regulation using neurofeedback
Tools used in Neurotechnology
Biofeedback such as Quantitative Electroencephalograph
(qEEG),
Neurofeedback,
Audio Visual Entrainment
Most of these application assist the educators and researchers in
helping children and young adults with symptoms such as
hyperactivity, learning problems, autism spectrum
disorder, impulsivity and other neurological disorders.

Neurofeedback Training
Neurofeedback
.Neurofeedback is a specialty field within Neurotechnology,
which is devoted to training people to gain control over
electro-physiological processes in the human brain.
In neurofeedback training, self-regulation of specific aspects
of electrical brain activity is acquired by means of
immediate feedback and positive reinforcement

One break through study of neurotherapy treatment to improve neuronal regulation of ADHD child
The 14 years old girl were characterized with hyperactivity, tantrum, self injury and co-morbid conditions (dyslexia)

CASE 1
Two treatment protocols were used. Firstly, increase
SMR on a location over the Frontal lobe and, training
to inhibit (decrease) slow activity in the range from 4-8
Hz over the same area.
The subject took about 25 session (30-40 minutes
each) to produce clinical changes in the brave wave
patterns and behavior. The social behavior improved
tremendously after 22 sessions of training with
reduction of oppositional behavior and self injuries.
NFT might have implicated on her amgydala, the subject
shows her emotional reaction, reduction in self injuries
and oppositional behavior and better social
relationships.
Case 2: Neurofeedback Guided NFT

Neurofeeback
Their brain topography was obtained
using qEEG brain mapping.
An average of 46 NFT sessions to
monitor their brainwave. A neurofeedback
protocol was designed to increase Alpha
(4-10 Hz) to Beta (16-20) as well as to
train the individual to normalize abnormal
EEG frequencies.

Conclusion
Neurofeedback helps to activate the brain wave
with different visual or auditory stimulus to
restore the normal waves.
It is an adjunct therapy to other therapies in
place of drugs.
Can be used for peak performance such as
golfers and normal children to enhance their
learning.
