Optode Template Editor

(f)NIRS custom templates made easy

Design Custom Templates with Precision and Ease

By default, the pre-designed optode templates provided in OxySoft and Brite Connect cannot be modified by users. If none of the available templates fit your regions of interest and you would prefer a tailored solution to meet your unique optode configuration needs, we have a solution: the Optode Template Editor.

This standalone software works seamlessly with both Brite Connect and OxySoft, enabling users to create and manage custom templates across compatible devices with ease. Whether you're using OxySoft or Brite Connect as your control software, Optode Template Editor offers a flexible, user-friendly solution for designing custom optode templates.

With Optode Template Editor, you gain complete control over the spatial positioning of optodes, as well as inter-optode distances, while also benefiting from a convenient way to visualize and organize your template library. This allows you to configure your setup exactly how you envision it, ensuring your device meets your unique research needs.

Please Note: Among our (f)NIRS devices, only the Brite, BabyBrite, MediBrite and OxyMon support customized templates.
