With our PLUX devices (BITalino or biosignalsplux) you can build your multichannel electroencephalography (EEG) setup. However, our EEG sensor – developed in bipolar configuration – is designed for single channel measurements or applications and is usually used in Fp1 and Fp2 positions.
For a more complex sensor setup, we recommend the products from biosignalsplux, which are specifically designed for research, rather than the BITalino, which is more intended for teaching. Although both configurations are possible.
Multi-EEG with BITalino
With BITalino, you are limited to six analog channels and low resolution (10 bits max), which can be quite limiting when detecting brain waves. With a BITalino device you can use six EEG sensors at the same time, using to the following materials:
- 1x BITalino Core unit (+ battery)
- 6x EEG sensor (+ 5x 2-lead electrode cable & 1x 3-lead electrode cable)
- 6x Sensor Cables
- 1x Silicone Cap (+ 6x 3D printed holders)
- Reusable Electrodes
- Conductive Paste
Learn more on the “Setting up the Electroencephalography (EEG) Cap for BITalino” video. The set-up can be easily adapted to biosignalsplux devices and sensors:
Note that! The BITalino EEG sensor (Assembled version) is not compatible neither with silicone cap nor the 3D printed holders.
Multi-EEG with biosignalsplux
When using biosignalsplux devices, you can synchronize up to three biosignalsplux 8-hub, which opens the possibility of acquiring 24 EEG channels simultaneously. In this case, the device has both a higher channel resolution (max. 16 bits) and a higher sampling frequency (max. 3000 Hz), making it a more suitable option for EEG research applications. With one biosignalsplux device you can use 8 EEG sensors simultaneously, according to the following setup:
- 1x Researcher Kit
- 8x EEG sensor
- 1x Silicone Cap (+ 6 holders – print) [Optional]
- Reusable Electrodes
- Conductive Paste
In the following article – “How can I synchronize two or more biosignalsplux hubs in OpenSignals?” – you will learn how to synchronize more than one biosignalsplux hub.
