Measure Emotional Response with Precision

See what people feel, think, and do—beyond what they say.

Understanding Emotional Response Is Harder Than It Looks
  • Emotional reactions are fast and often subtle

  • Small differences between concepts are difficult to measure reliably

  • Feedback reflects both experience and interpretation

  • Some reactions are felt but not easily expressed

​

Important signals are often missed — especially when differences are nuanced

CGX Turns Human Response Into Measurable Insight

Surveys show what people report. Behavior shows what they do. CGX adds the missing layer: direct, time-resolved measurement of how people actually respond.

 

By combining EEG, physiology, and behavioral data in one synchronized platform, CGX transforms fragmented signals into clear, decision-ready insight.

CGX Flowpoint 

From Data to Insight, Fast​​​

​

Central hub for EEG acquisition, visualization, and data export.

 

Connects directly to validated plug-ins like Intheon Signal Check, Intheon Bandpower, and Intheon SignalBoost.

 

Supports open workflows: export to third-party tools or build your own pipeline.

 

Real-time streaming via LSL for multimodal synchronization. Use for eye tracking, physiology, and others.

 

No dependency on proprietary “black-box” analytics.​​

Multimodal by Design

Expand Beyond EEG, Without Losing Control

​

​​​

EEG as the central signal layer, complementing surveys and behavioral measures with objective physiological data.

​​

Auxiliary Input Module (AIM) adds physiology (heart rate, GSR, respiration) into the same system.

​

Integrate eye tracking with Pupil Labs, behavioral tasks, and survey-based workflows via LSL.

​

Wireless StimTrigger enables low-latency synchronization across all streams.

​

Maintain a single, unified dataset across brain, behavior, physiology, and self-report.

Affective Science, Applied

Quantify how people feel, moment by moment, and connect those emotional responses to real decisions, experiences, and outcomes. CGX Quick-series dry EEG systems and CrunchBox platform unlock adding this objective layer of brain activity and physiological metrics

How it works: Capture > Quantify > Understand
Affective Science & Emotion Research

Measure Emotional Processing at Its Source

​Study how emotions are generated, evolve, and are regulated with precise, time-resolved measurement

​What This Enables

  • Capture emotional responses to stimuli

  • Track valence and arousal dynamics over time

  • Study emotion regulation processes

  • Link neural signals with subjective reports

​​​​Why CGX

  • High-quality, time-resolved data

  • Works in controlled and naturalistic settings

  • Sensitive to subtle emotional changes

  • Designed for reproducible research

Neuromarketing & Product Testing
Understand What Truly Resonates

​Measure how products, brands, and messaging shape emotional response — not just stated preference

​​What This Enables
  • Measure implicit reactions beyond self-report

  • Compare emotional impact across concepts

  • Identify engagement and disengagement points

  • Optimize for preference, trust, and impact

​Why CGX
  • Easily add an objective layer beyond surveys and focus groups

  • CGX CrunchBox hosts scalable workflows for testing and iteration

  • CGX Quick-series headsets are optimized to work in real-world environments
