Conor Russomanno and Joel Murphy have a dream. They want to create an open-source brain-scanner that anyone can print out at home, strap onto their head, and hook straight into their brain-waves.

An EEG is a test that records the brain's electrical activity by attaching sensors to a person's head that print out the data to a computer.

Naturally, they’re not the first to think of this — NASA and other space agencies have done similar experiments for years, but as brain.space points out, those were with pretty old-school gear.

The team has now taken a promising step towards such a future, unveiling what it says to be a first-of-its-kind EEG headset that will take brain monitoring out of the lab and into homes, cars and ...

The results from the two measurement techniques correlated perfectly. “The mathematical algorithms that we developed meant we could accurately interpret the data provided by the EEG and ascertain ...

Computers are needed to process the EEG data, and because patients tend to drift in and out of consciousness after a brain injury, the tests need to be conducted several times a day in the first ...

ABERDEEN PROVING GROUND, Md. (Army News Service, Dec. 24, 2015) -- Electroencephalography, or EEG, has been used for decades to measure voltage fluctuations in different parts of the brain to ...

New electrodes can better capture brain waves of people with natural hair. Standard EEG methods can falter when detecting signals from people with coarse, curly hair ...
