The light board contains 64 raised light switches arranged in 5 rings with a Screen (T-Scope) just above center of the board. The switches light up in two color options (green/red) and beep (optional) when pressed allowing the user to see the light, feel the button and hear the sound.

Visual - Users focus on the T-Scope and will hit the lights as they appear. Object of the exercise is to hit as many lights as possible in a timed run with the goal of improving the score through training and increasing the number of lights hit. Lights run in random program patterns. Specific patterns can be saved to use with the same individual or with specific demographics or teams.

Cognitive Skills - The T-Scope can be activated to have numbers, sentences, math equations flash with the user verbalizing the flashed information. This component introduces cognitive skills of concentration, focus, awareness, executive functioning, and multi-tasking into training. Decision making can be added to the exercise by using the two colors of lights and asking users to hit only the red lights that appear and not the green or vice versa.

Reports – Data measured includes # hits, misses, correct answers, incorrect answers, and can be broken down into quadrants to analyze and compare Upper right, Upper Left, Lower Right, Lower Left in order to pin point strengths and weaknesses and adjust training according. History of data is available to compare scores within individuals or across demographic populations and teams.

SPORTS Training with the Dynavision gives athletes a competitive edge and leg up on the competition with the latest performance enhancement technology. The Dynavision D2 is scientifically proven to take performance to the next level by training, measuring and improving the necessary skills to optimize performance and translate them to game situations. Hand – Eye Coordination / Peripheral Awareness / Concentration / Focus / Awareness / Cognitive Processing Ability / Decision Making under Stress / Economy of Motion Training / Reaction Time / Concussion Management – Baseline Testing / Rehabilitation/ Evaluation / Return to Play The combined visual/cognitive/gross motor elements of the D2 have made it a very useful objective measurement tool in concussion management. Baseline Testing Scores can be gathered and used as comparison when suspected concussion occurs. Statistics show the concussion rates with teams training on the D2 are significantly less (Clark et al., 2014) and if they do suffer a concussion the rate of recovery and return to play is quicker. In general, less games are lost to injury when training with the Dynavision.

MEDICAL - REHABILITATION Routine use of the Dynavision™ has become an important and proven part of medically directed rehab programs and protocols, for a wide range of uses and patient conditions and is currently in use in over 1,000 rehabilitation facilities. Stroke / Concussions / Low Vision / Decision Making / Visual Scanning / Traumatic Brain Injury / Balance Defects / Peripheral Awareness / Visual Field Deficit / Movement Disorders / Driver Re-training / Attention Deficit Disorders / Falls Prevention / Injury Prevention - Whether working in a hazardous environment or playing sports Dynavision training improves safety. Recent studies show improved peripheral visual awareness and faster reaction time result in fewer injuries. The D2 trains and improves field of vision and reaction time. By doing so, users can better process information and react to it faster putting themselves into better position to avoid injury. Objective Reports - The Dynavision™ generates, displays and records objective, actionable data, in HIPPA compliant form, reflecting the patient’s performance on the assigned Dynavision tasks; supporting the evidence based management of the patient’s rehab program.

TACTICAL

In high stress professions such as police, firefighters, military, elite special forces, being able to perform at optimal levels is critical to life and death situations. One of the most important skills in the field of tactical work is the ability to dynamically read and react to a variety of situations while under extreme levels of stress. The D2 evaluates, measures, records and improves dynamic visual-motor skills. The D2 trains out ‘Tunnel Vision’, replacing it with improved Peripheral and Situational Awareness giving individuals the ability to assess and process the information quickly, decide on appropriate action and produce an accurate response. Dynavision training helps in the most basic of combat situations for Police and Miliary, particularly in shoot / don’t shoot situations.

University of Cincinnati Football Team Study by Dr. Joseph Clark. The team started training with Dynavision in 2010. Study of team concussion rate from 2006 – 2013. Rate of Concussions dropped from 8.75 / year to 1.5 / year (80 % reduction) since the introduction of vision training. The introduction of the D2 is not the only reason for lower concussion rates but it is an important factor. He attributes this to the players having improved peripheral vision, faster reaction times, improved ability to process information and therefore, not get their bodies into situations that would result in injury.

High-Performance Vision Training Improves Batting Statistics for University of Cincinnati Baseball Players. (Clark JF, Ellis JK, Johnny Bench, Khoury J, Graman P (2012) High-Performance Vision Training Improves

Batting Statistics for University of Cincinnati Baseball Players. PLoS ONE 7(1): e29109. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0029109. January 19, 2012)

Athletes participated in 2010/11 pre-season 30 minute vision training sessions 3 times per week for a total of 6 weeks. Maintenance vision training program followed thr0ughout the season. Statistics from 2010/11 season were compared to 2009/10 season.

Results: The University of Cincinnati team batting average increased from 0.251 in 2010 to 0.285 in 2011 and the slugging percentage increased by 0.033. The rest of the Big East’s slugging percentage fell over that same time frame 0.082. This produces a difference of 0.115 with 95% confidence interval (0.024, 0.206). As with the batting average, the change for University of Cincinnati is significantly different from the rest of the Big East (p = 0.02). Essentially all batting parameters improved by 10% or more. Similar differences were seen when restricting the analysis to games within the Big East conference.

Conclusion: Vision training can combine traditional and technological methodologies to train the athletes’ eyes and improve batting. Vision training as part of conditioning or injury prevention can be applied and may improve batting performance in college baseball players. High performance vision training can be instituted in the pre-season and maintained throughout the season to improve batting parameters.

Proven History: For more than 25 years, Dynavision™ has been the choice of Rehabilitation Professionals to support their visual-motor and neuro-cognitive rehabilitation programs. Today, there are Dynavision™ units being used in more than 1,000 rehab facilities.

Research: Use of the Dynavision™ is backed by 20 years of published and ongoing research.

Easy to Use: Dynavision™ Units are rugged, simple to program, and easy to use. Flat Screen devices can be confusing to program and difficult to use, as they present the patient with only a two-dimensional, single point target—not the well proven, fully illuminated, raised 3D target of the Dynavision™ that can be triggered by a fist, full hand, held object or single finger.

Client Care: By recording objective data, Dynavision™ motivates patients to strive for continued improvement. Numerous programmable options come standard on the Dynavision D2™ which enable practitioners to develop individualized treatment plans and provide appropriate “just-right” challenges to clients of various ages, stages, and conditions.

The T-Scope sets the D2 apart from all competitors. It is programmable to display information for selected amount of time. The user performs a cognitive task in the central focal area such as calling out numbers, letters, words, sentences while challenging peripheral vision. Stress load is increased over time by increasing the amount of information presented thus challenging the user to reach higher cognitive processing levels
