Men at work: Mobile EEG as a new tool for neuroergonomics
Our recent study “Age-sensitive effects of enduring work with alternating cognitive and physical load. A study applying mobile EEG in a real life working scenario” demonstrates how mobile EEG can be utilized not only for user state examination but also for the evaluation of cognitive processing in real life working situations. Here is a summary of our publication.

NEW actiCAP and actiCHamp caps now with an improved and unified layout
In the past Brain Products used different cap layout styles for the caps that are used with the actiCHamp and the actiCAP active electrode system.
