One of the most remarkable breakthroughs in increasing your brain-power with minimal effort is called “The Quantum Cranial Advantage” (QCA). And, it’s based on a feature already on all NuTesla instruments called Your Personal Wellness Number, which uses Critical Flicker Fusion (CFF). Recent academia studies using CFF have confirmed the power of this amazing tool. Standalone CFF measurement devices cost hundreds to thousands of dollars…
Researchers Develop New Device To Measure Alzheimer’s Patients’ Brain Function
November 23, 2015by Patricia Inacio, PhDIn News. In a new study entitled “Critical Flicker Fusion Predicts Executive Function in Younger and Older Adults,” a team of researchers developed a new device that allows for a precise assessment of an individuals’ visual processing speed, i.e., how fast can a person can understand visual information. This device is a potential new strategy for assessing early cognitive impairments associated…
Effect of oxygen on neuronal excitability measured by CFFF
J Clin Exp Neuropsychol. 2015;37(3):276-84. doi: 10.1080/13803395.2015.1007118. Epub 2015 Feb 26. Effect of oxygen on neuronal excitability measured by critical flicker fusion frequency is dose dependent. Kot J1, Winklewski PJ, Sicko Z, Tkachenko Y. Abstract INTRODUCTION: Reactive oxygen species are involved in the functional changes necessary for synaptic plasticity, memory, and cognitive function. It is far from clear whether the increased excitability, and which forms…
Functional comparison between CFFF and simple cognitive tests
Diving Hyperb Med. 2013 Sep;43(3):138-42. Functional comparison between critical flicker fusion frequency and simple cognitive tests in subjects breathing air or oxygen in normobaria. Hemelryck W1, Rozloznik M, Germonpré P, Balestra C, Lafère P. Author information Abstract INTRODUCTION: Measurement of inert gas narcosis and its degree is difficult during operational circumstances, hence the need for a reliable, reproducible and adaptable tool. Although being an indirect…
Humans perceive flicker artifacts at 500 Hz
Scientific Reports 5, Article number: 7861 (2015) – doi:10.1038/srep07861 Abstract Humans perceive a stable average intensity image without flicker artifacts when a television or monitor updates at a sufficiently fast rate. This rate, known as the critical flicker fusion rate, has been studied for both spatially uniform lights, and spatio-temporal displays. These studies have included both stabilized and unstablized retinal images, and report the maximum…
‘Critical flicker fusion’ test can measure the brain’s processing speed
By Jessica Hall on November 23, 2015 at 10:11 am on extremetech.comSampling rates are important when we want to observe or record phenomena extending through time – for a stream of information of a given bit depth, we can capture a richer and more accurate portrait of whatever it is that we’re processing when we take samples or measurements more times per second. We measure…
Critical flicker fusion in early detection of Alzheimer’s disease
In March of 2000 S. Curran and J. Wattis published an article titled Critical flicker fusion threshold: a potentially useful measure for the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease. The full text of the article is only available via paid subscription, however, portions of its Abstract are presented below. Most curious though is why after 16 years has this method of diagnosis not become mainstream? All…
