MEGIN Opens Dual-MEG Hyperscanning Facility at Tsinghua to Record Two Brains at Once

Summary MEG systems maker MEGIN says it has opened a side-by-side dual-MEG hyperscanning facility at Tsinghua University in Beijing, built with the Department of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering at Aalto University. Two MEGIN TRIUX neo systems sit in adjacent magnetically shielded rooms, which the company says allows simultaneous whole-head recording from two interacting participants with millisecond-level synchronization, opening a real-time window on how two brains interact during natural conversation, cooperation and play. MEGIN says the first scientific work from the facility will be presented at the BIOMAG 2026 conference in Beijing, running August 23 to 25, 2026; the announcement does not disclose what the facility cost, how long it took to build, or which research projects are already under way.
Why it matters Hyperscanning has mostly been done with EEG or fNIRS, because putting two whole-head MEG systems side by side is an infrastructure problem rather than a methods one. A pair of TRIUX neo units in adjacent shielded rooms, synchronized to the millisecond, is a capability few sites have, and its landing in Beijing with Aalto involvement is worth logging for anyone tracking where two-brain work can actually be run. The claims here come from the vendor's own announcement, with no independent description of the installation.

BCIwiki (bciwiki.com) – MEG systems maker MEGIN said in an announcement dated July 8, 2026 that it has launched a side-by-side dual-MEG hyperscanning facility at Tsinghua University in Beijing, built in collaboration with the Department of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering at Aalto University. The facility gives researchers a real-time window into how two brains interact during natural conversation, cooperation and play, according to the company.

The installation brings together two MEGIN TRIUX neo systems in adjacent magnetically shielded rooms, MEGIN says, enabling simultaneous whole-head MEG recording from two interacting participants with millisecond-level synchronization. The company names Lauri Parkkonen and Andrey Zhdanov among those involved in the project.

Initial scientific work from the facility will be presented at the BIOMAG 2026 conference in Beijing, running from 23 August 2026 to 25 August 2026, MEGIN says. All of the above comes from the company’s own announcement, which does not disclose the cost of the facility, its construction timeline, or the specific research projects already under way; BCIwiki has not obtained an independent description of the installation.
