Software Development
Blue Magnet specialises in the programming of neuropsychological testing paradigms.
​
These are tasks that are specifically designed to measure a psychological function known to be linked to a particular brain structure or pathway. Tests are used for research into brain function and in a clinical setting for the diagnosis of deficits.
​
We also develop software for machine control systems, such as electronic interfaces that enable communication between medical devices and peripherals.
Electronics
Our electronics development focuses primarily on interfacing medical equipment. Typical requirements include the synchronisation of an MRI scanner with a peripheral device such as a hormone pump or subject response unit.
Other examples include electronics for electrophysiological data acquisition, signal filtering and interfacing with haptic devices or actuators.
​
Machining and Fabrication​
Blue Magnet offers CNC machining, plasma and laser cutting, TIG welding, metal bending and 3D printing.
​
We maintain a fast turnaround and outstanding quality for ergonomic feedback devices such MRI compatible joysticks and adjustable supports such as stereotactic frame systems.
