Our Company

Leveraging the Narbis team’s previous success with an official NASA spin-off company developing products to help people practice staying focused, Narbis was founded in 2013 to continue developing ways to encourage people to practice their attention performance. Narbis has developed a convenient, at-home, easy-to-use training device designed to help individuals work on focus and concentration habits in daily activities. The parent company, Domenic Greco Ventures, Corp., was named after Narbis founder Devon Greco’s father, Dr. Domenic Greco, a leading clinical psychologist. Sadly, Dr. Greco was diagnosed with ALS in 2009. Alongside his youngest son, Devon, he continued to work throughout his illness on innovation in the area of easy to use neurofeedback systems for individuals. Narbis was conceived by Devon before Dr. Greco’s premature death in 2013. He continues to be an inspiration to the work and innovation behind Narbis.

In the 1990s, a scientist working on pilot training at NASA’s Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, came up with a way to translate brainwave output, measured through neurofeedback, to characterize attention levels. 

To help pilots train their attention, researcher Dr. Alan Pope invented what he called an engagement index. The strength of higher-frequency beta waves that result from greater concentration is divided by the combined power of alpha and theta waves – lower-frequency outputs associated with relaxation. Pope’s system then spit out a number, one through six, to indicate the level of engagement.

His team tested the technique and found that subjects who were shown their engagement level while performing a task were able to learn to control their concentration and outperformed control groups while reporting a lower perceived workload.

Narbis wanted to bring this concept to bear on real-life activities and apply the same neurofeedback technology to smart glasses that users could wear while performing any task at all. The glasses would darken as the user became distracted, providing a real-time incentive to stay focused.

The Narbis system uses NASA’s engagement index and the accompanying algorithms, as well as the “dynamic thresholding” of the original technology – that is, the way the level of difficulty varies with the user’s performance.

Domenic Greco, Ph.D, Domenic held his doctorate in Clinical Psychology and has specialized in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback since 1982. He successfully developed and operated Stress Management and ADHD Treatment Centers on both coasts, Throughout Dr. Greco’s professional career he sought out and provided the most effective and innovative clinical treatment options available using Neurofeedback. In 2000 he partnered with NASA to commercially exploit their work to improve attention and performance in pilots using EEG Neurofeedback technology. The first clinical Technology was available in 2003. Practitioners around the U.S. began serving their clients with this, engaging, and effective technology. By 2005, the first ‘home-based’ systems were introduced to families
