Design of a Wireless EEG System for Point-of-Care Applications [PDF]

2013 39th Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference, 2013
This study aims to develop a wireless EEG system to provide critical point-of-care information about brain electrical activity. A novel dry electrode, which can be installed rapidly, is used to acquire EEG from the scalp. A wireless data link between the electrode and a data port (i.e., a smartphone) is established based on the Bluetooth technology.
