A Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy Imaging (fNIRS) is a non-invasive brain function imaging device based on near-infrared spectroscopy technology. It emits near-infrared light onto the scalp and receives the light signals reflected or transmitted by brain tissue, then analyzes changes in the concentrations of oxygenated hemoglobin and deoxygenated hemoglobin in the cerebral cortex to reflect local cerebral blood flow and oxygen metabolism changes associated with neural activity. The system typically consists of light sources, detectors, head-mounted probes or optical fiber caps, signal acquisition modules, and data analysis software. With advantages such as high safety, strong portability, and relatively low restrictions on subject movement, it is widely used in neuroscience research, cognitive psychology research, clinical research, rehabilitation assessment, human factors engineering, and brain-computer interface applications. The global annual sales volume of Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy Imaging (fNIRS)s is estimated at around 1,000 units, with an average selling price of approximately USD 270,000 per unit, indicating a high-value equipment market mainly driven by research institutions, universities, and medical organizations.
The upstream supply chain of Functional Near-infrared Spectroscopy Imaging (fNIRS)s mainly includes near-infrared light sources, photodetectors, optical fibers and probes, electronic signal acquisition modules, head-mounted wearing structures, algorithm software, and data analysis platforms. Among these components, optical devices, low-noise signal acquisition, and cerebral oxygenation analysis algorithms are key factors affecting system performance and cost. The downstream market mainly consists of universities and academic institutions, medical institutions, independent research institutes, and enterprise R&D users. Major application scenarios include neuroscience, cognitive psychology, clinical research, rehabilitation assessment, child development studies, human factors engineering, brain-computer interfaces, and wearable brain monitoring.
