New Product
Announcement, February 24, 2007: NeuroTek, LLC
announced the
release of the Neureka! Protocol package for
the Peak Achievement Trainer. the
first in the industry to clearly measure the “Aha!” moments of discovery
or sudden awareness in the brain. Neureka! measures the function
of a new brain system that also boosts memory of important new
information.
The Trainer can now measure the
Three Fundamental Dimensions of
Mental Processing--Focus, Alertness, and Neureka!
The
Company - NeuroTek, LLC, d/b/a Peak Achievement Training®, is a
revolutionary performance enhancement technology company that has
created the world’s first economical, accurate external interface
between the human brain and a PC. The Peak Achievement Trainer® enables human performance
improvement by measuring and displaying Focus, Alertness, and
Awareness using special
add-on computer hardware and software.
The company’s proven technology has benefited professional
athletes, corporate executives, and military officers as well as
children and adults with attention problems.
|
|
 The
company's predecessor, NeuroTechnology, Inc., also d/b/a Peak
Achievement Training®, was formed in 1993. In 1997, it developed new
technology to address a well-recognized and unfulfilled market need for
peak performance training products, meeting price and performance
requirements of professionals and semi-professionals in a wide range of
environments. |
|
The two companies have gathered an
impressive list of users to their credit, including the David Leadbetter
Golf Academy; the 2001 Super Bowl
Champions; Olympic Training Centers in the US, Canada, Israel, Norway,
Taiwan and
Singapore; the US Army's Centers for Enhanced Performance; Fortune 500
companies; the U.S. Office of Personnel Management; and many others.

Jonathan D. Cowan |
The
Founder - Jonathan Cowan, Ph.D., BCIAC, the founder and
Chairman of NeuroTek, is a well-known and respected researcher and
pioneer in interactive performance enhancement training. He is a
Peak Performance Specialist who understands that
NeuroVideoFeedback™ technology has the ability to improve people's lives by increasing
their focus and decreasing stress. He earned his Ph.D. from the
University of California, San Francisco, where he worked with Dr.
Joe Kamiya, the discoverer of brainwave biofeedback. Dr. Cowan is committed to making
this powerful technology widely available for consumer, professional and
institutional use.
Dr.
Cowan frequently presents his new insights about attention disorders and
the function of the brain’s frontal lobes--the hypotheses that lead to
the development of these very powerful protocols--at professional
meetings and seminars.

 The
Technology - The Peak Achievement Trainer® is the first accurate
Brain-PC interface designed to analyze the
Three Fundamental Dimensions of
Mental Processing as well as strengthen and enhance the brain’s
recently discovered Executive Attention Network, the site that controls
new learning. It provides accurate, understandable interactive
information to the user that accelerates the learning process, and
precisely indicates performance improvement. This innovative technology
improves performance through training Focus, Alertness, and Awareness
during practice and/or visualization of particular activities. |
|
Research by sports
psychologists and neuroimagers has established that learning by
visualizing is highly effective and that it activates 88% of the brain
cells used in the actual activity.
In 2004, NeuroTek
released a completely new software package, the
VR Software featuring the ability
to record video simultaneously with brainwave measurements to create
NeuroVideos of people performing important tasks. This
NeuroVideoFeedback™
software also allows any of the
Three Fundamental Dimensions of Mental Processing to control a DVD,
CD, animation, or audio file. The Peak
Achievement Trainer went wireless the next year, substituting a
transmitter and receiver that weighs about two ounces for the interface
box, and giving the users freedom of motion and superb electronics.
One of golf's master
teachers, David Leadbetter, and sport psychologist Robert Winters
published an article indicating that their initial studies showed that
the Peak Achievement Trainer showed
different brainwave patterns for very proficient golfers compared
with students and those having trouble with their game.
A training program at
a Fortune 500 company was able to
double the amount of time that the top 23 executives were able to
concentrate in just five sessions.
Our pilot
data indicates that the Peak Achievement Trainer® may be several times
faster than prior approaches. This NeuroTek system is so easy to use
that people usually understand how to make the equipment respond by
focusing within their first three minute trial. If the user becomes distracted in any way, the Peak
Achievement Trainer® senses it and immediately lets them know so that
they can focus again. Other instruments typically take 5-10 sessions to
create the same level of understanding.
