by Dr. Alex Kreilinger Technical Product Manager (Brain Products) In this hyperscanning series, we first introduced our gold standard solution based on BrainAmps, then a wireless solution using CGX Quick headsets and the StimTrigger, as well as the extremely flexible LSL solution. In this fourth part, we demonstrate another hardware-based option: using the trigger mirror…
by Dr. Alex Kreilinger Strategic Product Manager (Brain Products) Before starting a study that involves EEG recording, it is always a good idea to make sure the setup, including software and hardware, works as planned to avoid any unwanted surprises once it’s time to analyze the recorded data. Unfortunately, it is not always obvious if…
by Dr. Alex Kreilinger Strategic Product Manager (Brain Products) In the previous articles of our hyperscanning series, we outlined our gold standard recommendation for hyperscanning with BrainAmps, as well as showed you how to perform hyperscanning wirelessly with CGX Quick headsets and StimTrigger. Part 3 introduces a more general approach, which is based on LabStreamingLayer…
by Dr. David Schubring Scientific Consultant (Brain Products) Joining different labs to run the same study protocol has many advantages, e.g., including more participants from more diverse demographic and geographic backgrounds, comparing results between labs, benefiting from networking and knowledge transfer between colleagues, and ultimately a better generalizability of the results. On the other hand,…
by Eduardo Bellomo, Ph.D. Scientific Consultant (Brain Products) In the first article of the hyperscanning1 series, we discussed our gold-standard recommendations for hyperscanning with BrainAmp, our stationary, lab-based, modular system, which may be used with passive or active gel-based electrode technology. This is a great solution, but have you ever thought about bringing this setup…

by Dr. Alex Kreilinger Strategic Product Manager (Brain Products) This first part of the hyperscanning series introduces our current gold standard hardware solution for this application: the BrainAmps. Combining multiple BrainAmps allows using separate ground and reference channels for each participant and provides perfect clock synchronization in a single EEG recording file. Hyperscanning refers to…
by Dr. Christina Florence Lavallée Strategic Product Manager (Brain Products) Labs, universities and other research facilities are starting to re-open after the coronavirus lockdown, which means that many of you may be able to start recording EEG data once again. In order to support you in keeping yourselves and your participants as safe as possible,…
by Dr. Christina Florence Lavallée Strategic Product Manager (Brain Products) The Brain Products Young Scientist Award is presented each year to recognize a young researcher’s outstanding publication in the field of EEG-based psychophysiological research. The winner is chosen by an independent jury and was awarded to Esra Al this year. Although we could not present…
