GoFlow is a small head mounted device which provides a certain form of brain stimulation, namely transcranial direct-current stimulation. The device was developed by London based company Transcranial Ltd., even though, the similar title GoFlow was used also by one of the first tDCS devices, which produced by students at the University of Michigan and was never shipped.[5] The device consists of two electrodes, Go Flow tDCS stimulator, two cables, 9V battery, and band or cap which holds the electrodes on user's head. Go Flow Sports also includes armband.[4]
There are two types of devices sell under the name "Go Flow Pro" and "Go Flow Sports". The former device was intended to be low cost and reliable DIY (do-it-yourself) tDCS[1], even though in accordance with Wexler's terminology it could be entitled DTC (direct-to-consumers) device more properly. It is not developed by its users but it is shipped to them.[5] The latter type of the device is a device which should enhance physical performance.[4]
Contents
Main characteristics
Go Flow is standalone and fully enclosed head mounted tDCS device. The set includes the brain stimulator, two sponge electrodes, a band respectively a cap with armband, two cables and 9 V battery.[4] The device is intended as DIY tDCS device, thus components could be bought separately.[2] In addition, sticky electrodes with hydrogel could be used with the device.[6]
The Go Flow brain stimulator is small plastic box of size 26 mm x 28 mm x 16 mm. It contains one button which controls the setup of each session. There are also located orange and green LED lights, which indicates the output of the device and the duration of the session. The output can vary from 0.5 mA to 2 mA and the session duration from 5 minutes to 35 minutes.[4]
The device consists of two electrodes X and Y. "X" is a title for an anode and "Y" for a cathode. Each electrode has also its cable. The original package contains sponge electrodes which have to be wet by water or saline before the start of the session.[4] The users can used also hydrogel pads.[6] In that case, the skin under the electrodes have to be clean, in order to avoid injuries.[7]
Go Flow Sports includes also the sport cap and armband, which holds electrodes on the head or arm of users. The cap contains holes in the certain regions of scalp which ensure more precise placement of electrodes. The various placements of electrodes with regard to expected outcome of the session is described in Go Flow Sports booklet.[4]
The session begins with the watering of electrodes. Then the electrodes are fastened to the head by the cap or the bend. In the case that the user intends to put cathode on his or her arm and he or she owns Go Flow Sports, he or she can fasten it by armband. The cables are adjusted by magnets to the electrodes. Finally, cables are connected to the brain stimulator and the setting of the session is designed by the button. The booklet of Go Flow Sports suggests four possible settings of the session: training longer, training harder, learning new skills and getting into the zone. There should be 48 hours gap between each session.[4]
The title GoFlow was originally used for the device which was developed by two students at the University of Michigan Matt Sornson and Nick Woodhams as a prototype in 2012.[5] Later on, they supported the device which was developed by Foc.us.[8] In 2016, Foc.us have been developing a device which would be reliable and considerably cheap. They entitled it "Go Flow" as the allusion of the previously mentioned project.[1]
Purpose
The main purpose is to enhance skills of its users by affordable and reliable tDCS device. The specific ability which is enhanced depends on the placement of electrodes. Go Flow Sports focuses on the enhancement of motor skills.
Company & People
Go Flow is shipped by Transcranial Ltd., which is based in London, UK. The company is also referred as "Foc.us". It was founded by two engineers. They claim, however, that they cooperate with neuroscientist.[9]
- Michael Oxley - the co-founder and CEO of Foc.us
- Martin Skinner - the co-founder of Foc.us[9]
Important Dates
- November 2015 - Foc.us decided to built an accurate, reliable and affordable tDCS device
- January 2016 - Focus Go Flow device was unveiled[1]
- September 2016 - Foc.us introduced Go Flow Sports[10]
- October 2016 - Go Flow Sports began shipping[11]
Enhancement/Therapy/Treatment
There is not indicated precise purpose of Go Flow Pro, but the claim that Foc.us provides on their websites about DIY tCDS devices might hold. Namely, they argue that tDCS could enhance endurance, focus and working memory. The enhancement is based on neuroplasticity.[12]
Go Flow Sport is intended as a device which enhance physical skills. The booklet describe several placement of electrodes which could enhance certain abilities.[4] The enhancement is described in a more detail in Foc.us blog posts.[13][14][15] Firstly, there is a treatment which should enhance implicit motor learning. The electrodes are placed on F3 (cathode) and Fp2 (anode). The placement could be used by right-handers as well as left-handers. The session takes 15 minutes and the recommended current is 1.5 mA.[13] The design of the session and the output was suggested by a research conducted by researchers form the University of Hong Kong. The different tDCS device was used in the research.[16]
Secondly, the session could be also focused on the lengthening of training. In this case the electrodes are placed on T3 (anode) and contralateral shoulder (cathode). The session should take 20 minutes and the current should be 2 mA.[15] The design of the session is also based on a study.[17] Thirdly, they claim that tDCS could help athletes to train harder. This session takes 20 minutes with 2 mA output and electrodes are placed on F3 (anode) and contralateral shoulder (cathode). This setting is also inspired by research which were conducted previously.[18]
Although there are several studies, which claim that tDCS improves mental or motor skills of its users, there are also studies which question the efficiency of tDCS.[19]
Go Flow is not a medical device and the developers are quite cautious not to put any misleading claim on Go Flow's webpage. They argue:
tDCS can help increase your focus, working memory and endurance. These are the only benefits we recommend using tDCS for. If you have a medical condition you are hoping to treat you should not consider foc.us. If you have any medical questions we cannot help you, sorry.[12]
Consequently, the device is not regulated by FDA. There is, however, Foc.us' motto "take charge" which could be considered as a kind of medical claim.[5]
Ethical & Health Issues
There are several ethical and health issues which are linked with tDCS in general, with DIY tDCS, or directly with Go Flow.
In general, there are identified various problematic features of tDCS. Firstly, there are still several issues linked with tDCS, which remain unknown, as the long-term effects of tDCS. Secondly, the tDCS session is influenced by many factors as gender, hormones or handeness.[20] Thirdly, the enhancement of a certain skill could be accompanied by the impairment of other skills.[21]
Beside these, there are also issues linked with DIY tDCS devices. The placement of electrodes is crucial for the output of the session but the instructions which accompany tDCS devices tend to be insufficient.[20] There are several health and placement's information in Go Flow's booklet but they are by no means all-encompassing.[4] Further information are contained on Foc.us blog, however it claimed there that these information are based on the studies of third party.[13][15] Several people, who are involved in DIY tDCS, are acquainted with the research,[22] but since the device is publicly available there is no guarantee that the consumer is sufficiently informed. However, among other DIY tDCS' developers, Foc.us still provides a certain amount of information about the use of their device.
Similarly as Halo Sport, Go Flow Sport could be considered as doping. However, tDCS devices have been regulated neither by WADA (the World Anti-Doping Agency) nor by International Olympic Committee yet. The involved organisations collect information about the technology at the moment. [23]
Another controversial aspect could be that authors use for the support of their claims also papers which were published in the journal Frontiers in Human Neuroscience.[18] While the practise of the publisher house is in Beall's list of publishers.[24]
Regarding radiation, Go Flow follows part 15 of the FCC rules. These rules focus on radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment.[4]
The manufacturers identify in the booklet several conditions which should prevent the use of their device. Go Flow should not be used by the people under the age 18 years old. The people with epilepsy, seizures, brain lesions, bipolar depression, or severe heart disease should also avoid the use of the device. The skin under the electrodes should not be damaged.[4]
The use of tDCS devices could be accompanied by certain side effects. The users could suffer by skin burns, dizziness or headaches.[12] There were reported injuries caused by sticky electrodes which were used in a certain types of Go Flow devices:
Recently, we've seen an increased interest in using tDCS devices with sticky electrodes (primarily because this is one of the default configurations of the foc.us GoFlow device which launched recently). Coincident with this, we've seen an increase in reports of injuries from sticky electrodes.[7]
The skin could be also burned if the sponge electrodes are not wet enough.[4]
Public & Media Impact and Presentation
Go Flow is in general appreciated among users. Brent Williams, who owns a blog Speak Wisdom, claims:"The foc.us Go Flow is a great tDCS device – providing great capability at a very low price."[25] The user 'Nigel' at 'Caputron tDCS Devices and tDCS Accessories' clams:"If you are looking for a portable and powerful tDCS device look no further. This can easily fit anywhere and provides excellent features such as a timer and ramp up/down."[26] In addition, among the manufactures producing tDCS devices Foc.us provides a certain amount of information which is also approved by users[27], even though, some of them claim that information provided by Foc.us are not sufficient.[28]
Debaters at 'DIY tDCS' argues that Foc.us has to be extremely careful in their claim, in order to avoid FDA concerns. 'james katt' wrote:"Focus obviously cannot state anything regarding medical conditions. That would bring the wrath of the FDA on them, causing them to be banned from the market."[29] 'John' added: "Agreed. Focus have been careful all along. As Anna Wexler points out in our interview, it’s a very wriggly line and in a state of flux at the FDA."[30]
There were several complains concerning customer service of Foc.us. The user entitled 'johnsown' on Reddit claim:
Foc.us. is the worst company I have ever had anything to do with. My foc.us. bricked after about three months. Contacted customer service. Got no reply at all. Contacted Michael's? email. No response. Out 200 dollars. You might notice that I have had positive things to say about them previously, because I liked the product, but it's not much use as a paperweight. Absolutely no customer service as another poster said.[31]
The user 'raiden3600' have similar experience, even though, in his case the e-mail to Foc.us CEO was successfull:
When I emailed through their normal customer service address, I only got an automated response. I ended up emailing the more urgent email mike@foc.us and got a response back within 2 days. He was asking me what went wrong and to show him the results of what happened. I would try emailing that address and see how things go.[32]
Public Policy
The device is not regulated by FDA. The manufactures claim that it is not a medical device.[12]
Go Flow complies with FCC rules concerning radiation.[4]
Related Technologies, Projects or Scientific Research
The development of Go Flow was based on the research concerning tDCS. However, the manufactures are engineers and not neuroscientists.[9] They have not reported any independent research yet.
Since the Go Flow was shipped recently, it has not been widely discussed in ethical papers yet. Nonetheless, the issues mentioned in previously published papers still apply on it.[5][20]
