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…
by Dr. Pedro M. R. Reis Scientific Consultant (Brain Products) Abstract Accurate source localization needs accurate electrode positions. With the CapTrak users can accurately and quickly acquire positions of all Brain Products active electrodes. However, a few things should be considered to ensure a quick and successful electrode localization. By understanding the basic concepts behind the…
by Dr. Thomas Emmerling Scientific Consultant (Brain Products) Since the release in 2005, the actiCAP has been widely adopted. Active electrodes have become the gold standard in research EEG – at least for applications where data quality is critical. The possibility to perform recordings at higher impedances using the active circuitry and the LED impedance…
by Dr. Thomas Emmerling Scientific Consultant (Brain Products) The actiCAP active electrodes are widely used. They work with our actiCAP system, the actiCHamp, the V-Amp and the LiveAmp. In this article we provide you with a guide to the practical use of actiCAP electrodes. We add tricks and tips that help to make your…
by Dr. Thomas Emmerling Scientific Consultant (Brain Products) Our original actiCAP electrode was among the first active electrode systems available for EEG research. Since the release in 2005 the actiCAP has been widely adopted. Active electrodes have become the gold standard in research EEG – at least for applications where data quality is critical. And…
by Edmund Wascher & Stephan Getzmann IfADo-Leibniz Research Centre for Working Environment and Human Factors, Dortmund, Germany Abstract 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” (Wascher et al., 2016) demonstrates how mobile EEG can be utilized not…
