Versatile Kids EEG

Versatile Kids EEG

Portable and wireless water-based EEG cap with 16 or 32 channels for real-world research, focused on the pediatric population, providing great convenience to the researcher and comfort to the kids.

Portable water-based EEG cap for kids

These all-purpose water-based EEG caps with 16 or 32 channels are mobile EEG devices for real-time recording. They are adapted for the pediatric population and designed for versatile monitoring in a wide range of environments, providing great comfort to the researcher. The sensor bundle is longer, allowing different set-ups based on the use case. Its water-based EEG sensors allow flexible positioning. It has been developed with highly stable contacts and active shields that allow reliable and precise monitoring even in ambulatory conditions.

It is designed to be as comfortable as possible for the baby or kid, is easy to fit, does not require any electrolytic gels. The REF is placed on the kids' cap, the sensors are covered by a textile cap so that the child does not touch them or drop them.

Versatile Kids EEG comes with the Bitbrain Software Kit for signal acquisition and programming, which has a large compatibility with real-time I/O and third-party data processing (LSL, Matlab, Python, BCI2000, OpenVibe, etc). Also, by acquiring the Human Behaviour Research Lab, it can be performed a seamless synchronization with other human monitoring technologies such as ExG, GSR, and eye-trackers, among others.
