Common description
EEG-caps
are made of elastic material that provides the most comfortable fit of the electrodes without additional
adjustment. Numerous holes are intended for ventilation and electrode alignment to head according to modified
combinatorial electrode nomenclature
1
.
Many sizes of cap cover the head sizes from 24 cm to 66 cm head circumference. EEG-cap fixed to the head using chin
belt or chest belt.
Reusable EEG electrodes
have a channel for gel and the recording surface is silver/silver chloride (Ag/AgCl). Sintered
technology of sensors guaranties minimal polarization and long-term stability. Electrode contact with the skin is provided
through EEG gel.
EEG electrodes fixed to the EEG-cap using special fixing ring or the electrode hole on the cap. EEG electrodes are
connected to an electroencephalograph through single or united connectors.
Point EEG electrodes MCScap-E sensor for
installation in a fixing ring
Сup EEG electrodes MCScap-NT sensor for installation on
the textile base of the EEG-cap (similarly for other electrodes
MCScap-С, MCScap-T, MCScap-NTC, MCScap-NTH)
