BxShadow

BxShadow shadow feedback

One point I wanted to make about BxShadow is that it does not work “inside” BioExplorer or any other program. It creates a shadow box that you can control and that is linked to BioExplorer’s feedback. You can size and place this box over a whole screen or anything on it–not just a BioExplorer window.

For example,

1. Instead of using the DVD player in BE, use your standard DVD player and place the shadow window over it. The DVD will play in Windows…but the shadow will adjust the brightness based on what the client is doing in their training design. Sound is also adjusted based on the feedback.

2. Stream a video of interest to the client on your computer, and have the brightness and volume controls adjust its brightness and volume.

3. Download a game like Tetris or another that the client enjoys and place the shadow window over that on the client screen (no need for the BioExplorer window even to be there!), and the game brightens and darkens and volume of game sounds change based on brain performance.

4. Open a Kindle book or a digital graphic novel on the screen and place the shadow window over that so reading becomes easier or harder to follow based on what the brain is doing.

5. Surf the net on your favorite browser with the shadow window over it.

Use your imagination! The point is that the program makes whatever is on the screen under the shadow window a part of the training. You can adjust the brightness settings, and you can choose to have high/low brightness levels that switch back and forth, or you can use variable brightness with gradation.

There are designs in the brain-trainer designs package that will work with BxShadow. It works with any version of Windows, so anything that will run BioExplorer will run BxShadow.
