Our first effort to use neurometric screening methods outside of a lab involved creating a portable blink setup with a virtual reality helmet. This allows researchers to conduct the screening in schools and other institutions. The system has been purchased by multiple universities, including Lund University in Sweden.

Bas Koekkoek, Peter Boele, and Henk-Jan Boele converted a camper van into a fully-functional mobile laboratory. With support from Dell and Intel, researchers were able to conduct studies and measure participants in their own homes, resulting in more reliable results, better adherence to testing protocols, and larger sample sizes. The mobile lab was utilized by several institutes in The Netherlands.

Peter Boele creates a basic version of BlinkLab on a smartphone. Bas Koekkoek and Henk-Jan Boele thoroughly test the app and find that while the concept is promising, smartphone technology is not advanced enough at this time.

Henk-Jan Boele and Bas Koekkoek have designed and installed a custom eyeblink conditioning setup at the Princeton Babylab. This specialized setup, made with soft materials and high-speed video tracking technology, will enable the Babylab team, led by director Prof. Casey Lew-Williams, to conduct experiments on 6-8 month old infants who are at risk for autism.

Peter Boele and Henk-Jan Boele have created the first version of BlinkLab. The app is tested on 20 participants using various neuroscientific tests. Princeton University has patented the technology and awards Henk-Jan Boele and Sam Wang a 150k USD grant to continue developing the technology. This exciting breakthrough has the potential to revolutionize the field of neuroscience and offer new opportunities for research and clinical applications.
