Recently, the finals of the 2026 Hangzhou Overseas High-Level Talent Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, themed "Maker World · Toward a Future in Hangzhou," concluded in Hangzhou. Hangzhou NEUREAL Technology Co., Ltd. stood out among numerous global entries with its project "Building an Immersive BCI Emotion-Cognition Dual-Core Closed-Loop Platform," winning the second prize in the Brain-Inspired Intelligence special track.
Top 30 Finals Showdown: NEUREAL Secures Second Prize
This year's competition received applications from 1,686 projects across more than 30 countries and regions worldwide. The event featured three main tracks—Artificial Intelligence, Life & Health, and Advanced Industries—alongside special tracks such as Brain-Inspired Intelligence and AI + Biomedicine & Medical Devices. A total of 30 projects advanced to the finals.
During the final defense and roadshow sessions, the expert review panel scored projects comprehensively across five dimensions: technological innovation, intellectual property barriers, clinical value, business model, and implementation feasibility. NEUREAL's project ultimately won the second prize in the Brain-Inspired Intelligence special track.
This award serves as strong validation of NEUREAL's long-term dedication and accumulation in the field of non-invasive brain-computer interface + AI integration applications.
Focusing on Emotion-Cognition Dual-Core Decoding to Build a Closed-Loop Digital Intervention Platform
NEUREAL's participating project focuses on emotion and cognition decoding, aiming to build an immersive BCI emotion-cognition dual-core closed-loop platform. The project integrates technologies including Artificial Intelligence, Brain-Computer Interface (BCI), and Virtual Reality (VR) to explore digital closed-loop intervention solutions for brain function-related conditions such as depression, ADHD, autism, and cognitive decline.
The platform uses VR scenarios to trigger corresponding tasks, collects brain task signals, analyzes them using AI models, and delivers interventions via VR, transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS), and other technologies. The system dynamically adjusts relevant parameters based on state changes during use, achieving a full-process closed loop of "Perception—Analysis—Intervention—Feedback."
The core of the project is to use emotion and cognition dual-core decoding as the key lever, linking the entire process of task assessment, AI analysis, and adaptive intervention to provide a closed-loop digital intervention solution for brain function-related issues.
Continuing Deep Engagement to Accelerate BCI R&D and Implementation
"Maker World · Toward a Future in Hangzhou" gathers high-level global talent and tech innovation projects, serving as a stage for cutting-edge technology exchange. For NEUREAL, participation was not just a project showcase but also a valuable opportunity to engage with teams in fields like Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) and Artificial Intelligence.
In the future, NEUREAL will continue to deepen its expertise in non-invasive brain-computer interfaces and core AI technologies, advance technical research and result transformation in brain function-related scenarios, continuously refine products, and expand practical real-world applications.
