Visual Stimulation 

fNIRS techniques have become increasingly popular because of their easy and safe operation, cost-efficiency, good temporal resolution, and the clear and robust results they deliver in real time. As such, fNIRS is ideal to explore visual stimulation, and indeed vision-related fNIRS research is very active.
