Wide-Ranging Upgrade for iMotions Behavioural Platform

Copenhagen-based behavioural research platform iMotions has released a new version of its software promising to help users go 'faster and deeper' by means of advanced visualizations, smarter automation and many other new features.

Founded in 2005, iMotions is now a part of Swedish technology group Smart Eye, has recently been strengthened with the arrival of staff from a sister company, emotional analysis subsidiary Affectiva, and partners with more than twenty of the world's biggest sensor hardware companies, integrating their tech into a single platform.

iMotions 11 builds on nearly twenty years of development work and - says the company - refines the platform's established features while expanding sensor support, simplifying complex workflows, and unlocking deeper insights into 'how people think, feel, and act.'

The new release features expanded hardware support, reinforcing the firm's long-term commitment to a hardware-agnostic platform; and adds native fNIRS support with industry-standard export options, making brain-oxygenation studies easier to run and analyze. It also promises seamless integration with the latest biosensors and eye tracking systems, including Smart Eye Pro v12 (introducing drowsiness and profile-ID signals), Pupil Labs Neon (with blink and fixation imports), and the full Biosignalsplux suite. In addition, workflow is now more efficient, surveys 'richer and more flexible,' and the release features a completely new Data Visualization Dashboard, as well as Multiface Analysis, allowing emotion tracking for multiple participants simultaneously.

CEO and founder Peter Hartzbech (pictured) states: 'With iMotions 11, we've focused on what matters most to our users: flexibility, speed, and confidence. With enhanced machine learning, advanced visualizations, and smarter automation, researchers can better capture and analyze behavior and decision making. iMotions 11 helps them see human behavior faster, deeper, and more clearly than ever before.'
