Cambridge Research Systems Ltd.

BOLDscreen 3D is a high definition LED LCD monitor which is designed to display dichoptic visual stimuli for stereoscopic and binocular vision experiments using fMRI or DTI. We use the very latest FPR technology to deliver bright, flicker free dichoptic stimuli with no ghosting to an experiment observer wearing lightweight, MRI-safe, passively polarised glasses. When the glasses are not worn, the monitor operates as a standard 2D display. BOLDscreen 3D is suitable for use as a patient entertainment system during routine clinical MRI scanning sessions: now you can deliver a real wow factor with 3D movies.

BOLDscreen 3D is safe to install anywhere inside the scanner room, even directly at the exit of the magnet bore, and its images can be viewed using headcoil mounted mirrors or enjoyed straight on. Our in-the-room approach is significantly easier to setup and calibrate than a projector, zoom lens and screen and is a considerably more cost effective choice than a binocular goggle system. 

Other MRI-compatible LCD monitors sold for patient entertainment in clinical MRI typically use TV technology which deliberately interpolates the input and introduces lag, producing an image which may look easy on the eye, but is unsynchronised and smeared with respect to the input, and therefore of limited use for scientific applications. Our custom electronics deliver your stimulus direct to the screen, so that what you put in, is what you get out!
