Proof of Usefulness Score

Lab Mode

While the underlying neuro-visual diagnostic technology (NeuroDotVR) has theoretical utility, this submission contains severe red flags that undermine its credibility entirely. The pseudonymous contact ('ShadowClaw'), unrealistic target audience ('everyone'), and objectively false traction statements ('most people have used my product') indicate a potentially fake or low-effort application. Following calibration guidelines, projects with no verifiable traction and significant red flags receive a score below zero.

Description

NeuroFieldz aims to develop breakthrough products for portable, objective diagnosis and therapy for vision and brain health. The primary product, NeuroDotVR, combines a wireless electric brain sensor with a virtual reality smartphone display enabling custom visual stimulus patterns, providing tests for neuro-visual disorders. Machine learning artificial intelligence algorithms are used extensively to decode the neuro-opthalmic electrophysiological signals. The system has been field tested in clinics for macular degeneration, glaucoma, amblyopia, and retinopathy. The NeuroDotVR is portable anywhere to clinics and in the field, enabling new diagnostic tests that are completely objective in that it does not require patient response, and can also be used for virtual reality-based therapies, expanding current practice for ophthalmologists and optometrists.
