by Dr. Robert Störmer Head of Technical Support (Brain Products) As soon as our active electrodes are used with our full band amplifiers, recording of clean EEG signals becomes as easy as pie. However, the acquisition of analog signals is only half the battle: The other half is the communication with the technical equipment involved.…
by Dipl.-Psych. Michael Hoppstädter and Dr.-Ing. Kidist Mideksa Scientific Consultants (Brain Products) BrainVision Analyzer 2 was originally designed to process EEG data and analyze ERPs. However, the data from sensors measuring peripheral physiological signals resembles EEG in many aspects. Therefore, Analyzer 2 can also be used for such signals. Please note that Analyzer 2 often…
by Falk Minow General Manager (Easycap GmbH) Despite some interesting new developments in the area of EEG Recording Caps like sponge-and-saltwater-nets or dry-electrode-headsets, the majority of EEG research is still done with electrolyte-gel-filled-electrode-caps. Easycap manufactures caps with any channel number, any layout and for connection to any amplifier. This is not only for…
