ENOBIO dry electrophysiology electrode; first human trial plus wireless electrode system

Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc. 2007:2007:6690-4. doi: 10.1109/IEMBS.2007.4353895.

Abstract

This paper presents the results of the first human trials with the ENOBIO electrophysiology electrode prototype plus the initial results of a new wireless prototype with flexible electrodes based on the same platform. The results indicate that a dry active electrode that employs a CNT array as the electrode interface can perform on a par with traditional "wet" electrodes for the recording of EEG, ECG, EOG and EMG. We also demonstrate a new platform combining wireless technology plus flexible electrodes for improved comfort for applications that take advantage of the dry electrode concept.
