BrainAccess released a major update to its desktop application BrainAccess Board on July 27, 2026, featuring a rebuilt interface, improved functionality and a new AI assistant called Jena that monitors device and signal quality in real time. The company, which supplies EEG devices and software for neuroscience research and clinical use, said the update is aimed at ease of use and data management during EEG acquisition and analysis.
BrainAccess, the EEG system line from Neurotechnology, has released a MATLAB API that lets users connect its wireless dry-electrode headsets over Bluetooth, configure channels and sampling rate, start and stop data streams and pull data straight into MATLAB arrays, work that previously required Python, C or the LSL MATLAB toolbox. The toolbox installs as a single .mltbx package for desktop MATLAB R2025b or newer, mirrors the structure of the existing Python API and supports session annotations and saving directly to .mat files, so recordings can go straight into tools such as Signal Processing Toolbox and EEGLAB. BrainAccess devices, sold in MINI, MIDI, MAXI and HALO models, are widely used in neuroscience research and engineering.
