As the original inventors of home-use brain photobiomodulation technology in 2014, we learned that effective brain photobiomodulation<\/a> is not simple.<\/p>\n Delivering the optimal amount of light energy into the brain in a safe and effective manner takes considerable research and engineering.<\/p>\n Here are the reasons behind the Neuro’s unique patented design.<\/p>\n The Vielight Neuro is engineered for coverage by design<\/strong>, not by quantity. A small number of high-output Vie-LEDs<\/strong>, shaped to bypass hair, are engineered so that natural scattering in the scalp, skull and cerebrospinal fluid,<\/strong> (the brain consists of 70-80% water) broaden each beam into a large, overlapping halo<\/strong>. These halos interact to create an effectively full-transcranial footprint<\/strong> with extra focus over Default Mode Network (DMN) hubs<\/strong>. This physics-led approach avoids the need for hundreds of low-output LEDs<\/strong> that mainly paint the scalp\u2014it uses fewer, stronger, well-placed emitters<\/strong> to deliver a meaningful energy footprint where it matters.<\/p>\n<\/div> Watch a demonstration video of the Vielight Neuro vs a 1070 nm helmet. Vielight technology is featured in the most published research<\/a> in the field of brain photobiomodulation by a significant margin and has the deepest penetration in the entire industry.<\/p>\n Be cautious of companies attributing research conducted with Vielight devices or other devices as attainable to their own.<\/p>\n Brain photobiomodulation is parameter-specific and our Vie-LED technology generates a unique laser-like profile and an industry-leading irradiance on specific and important brain networks, like the Default Mode Network.<\/a><\/p>\n Other devices cannot easily emulate our efficacy because of our proprietray Vie-LED technology, intranasal and design patents.<\/p>\n The table below is a benchmark studies published comparison against other random PBM helmets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

The system\u2019s intranasal pathway<\/strong> adds what the cranium alone can\u2019t easily reach: via the cribriform plate<\/strong>, light has a short, porous route<\/strong> to ventral\/frontobasal structures<\/strong>, completing dorsal-to-ventral continuity.<\/p>\n
