i-BrainTech is a software company specializing in the provision of brain–computer interfaces for motor control neurofeedback therapy.[1] The company is headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel.[2]
History
i-BrainTech was founded in 2019 by entrepreneur and computer scientist Dr. Konstantin Sonkin.[3] Prior to the company's creation, Sonkin worked in the centre for innovation at The Sagol School of Neuroscience, Tel Aviv University.[4] While working on applications of neuroscience using artificial intelligence Sonkin met neuroscientist Yoav Zamir and entrepreneur Yoel Feldman.[5]
In 2020, i-Braintech was one of 10 Israeli startups selected to participate in Techstars Tel Aviv.[6] Following this participation, i-BrainTech secured a $1.5M seed funding round led by the venture capital fund Orbita Capital.[7]
Products
i-Braintech's initial neurofeedback product is a soccer themed video game that is controlled by a user's thoughts only.[8][9] Athletes that have used this game and spoken publicly about its subjective utility include prior captain of the USA national team and current midfielder of Chicago Fire F.C., Jonathan Bornstein.[10]
