TriggerBox / TriggerBox Extension

The TriggerBox helps to handle and merge triggers arriving from different sources, which is quite often a requirement in complex laboratory setups.

TriggerBox

  • TriggerBox has connectors for parallel/LPT as well as BNC inputs; the latter are all isolated from each other as well as from the other input connectors.
    It is equipped with 8 toggle switches to regulate bit-wise which input should determine the value of the output parallel port, where the EEG amplifier is connected.
  • It can provide connection to the 16th bit of the BrainAmp trigger input, via an optical fibre cable or BNC connector.
  • It offers a stretching function for the 8th and 16th bits which is useful if the incoming TTL pulses are too short for the amplifier and would otherwise go undetected.
  • It is powered by USB.
  • New as of revision 2 – TriggerBox is now even more flexible and provides a virtual serial port via USB that can be directly addressed from your stimulus presentation software.

TriggerBox Extension

  • TriggerBox Extension offers 8 additional BNC connectors which can be linked to the 8 upper bits (from lines 8 and 15) of the BrainAmp or used as a standalone solution for amplifiers such as actiCHamp or V-Amp in situations where stretching, switching and isolation functions are not required.
  • It can be connected to the output trigger port of the actiCHamp in order to lead the outgoing signal to the BNC ports.

SyncBox

SyncBox is a must-have solution to boost data quality for concurrent EEG and fMRI recordings

The Syncbox is a unique tool which significantly reduces timing related errors and boosts the quality of MRI artifact correction by synchronizing the clock of the BrainAmp MR / BrainAmp MR plus amplifier with the clock driving the MRI scanner’s gradient switching system.

The SyncBox is essential to recording high quality EEG data in the MR environment and is it compatible with all major commercial MRI scanners available on the market.

  • Synchronizes the clock of BrainAmp MR amplifiers with the master clock driving the MRI scanner’s gradient system
  • Significantly reduces timing related errors and boosts the quality of gradient artifact correction
  • SyncBox scanner interface and scanner clock output are physically connected (using galvanic coupling) to avoid potential influence on the MR scanner system
  • Seamless integration with BrainVision Recorder and Analyzer software by means of dedicated trigger codes and implemented algorithms

BrainVision RecView

Software for real-time data analyses

BrainVision RecView is an advanced solution designed for real-time analysis of data received over the Ethernet network via TCP-IP directly from BrainVision Recorder.

  • Widely used in the EEG/fMRI field to remove both the gradient and the ballistocardiogram artifact (permitting experimental control during the scan).
  • The “Template Drift Compensation” algorithm remedies template jitter caused by imperfect synchronization between the EEG amplifier and the scanner clocks and thus ensures optimal data correction at any time.
  • Uses the same history tree concept already implemented in BrainVision Analyzer
  • Can also be used for FFT analysis, data filtering, mapping of the surface potentials as well as BCI and bio-/neurofeedback on the incoming data.

MOVE

Going Wireless has never been so easy

The wireless MOVE is a solution that replaces the existing cables connecting electrodes and amplifier with wireless-based communication. This solution allows the subject to move freely and makes it very suitable for use with a Brain Computer Interface (BCI), neurofeedback and motor learning.

MOVE at a glance

  • The small, lightweight transmitter and the receiver can be used with virtually any existing amplifier/electrode combination.
  • As the transmitter is not integrated into the cap, there is no risk of damaging it when cleaning the cap. Simply disconnect the transmitter and clean the cap the way you always have.
  • Each MOVE is capable of handling 64 channels; up to 5 units can be used in the same location.
  • Normal experiments become more convenient; new paradigms can be incorporated into day-to-day research.

How does it work?

The MOVE transmitter amplifies and digitizes the incoming raw analogue signal and sends it to the MOVE receiver, where the digital data is converted back to analogue. Since the amplification factor is 1:1, the existing EEG amplifier receives exactly the same data as previously. If the data is not received properly, the receiver unit will send a TTL pulse marker to the amplifier. A further marker is sent when stable and reliable data reception resumes. This feature is extremely useful during the data analysis stage; in the unlikely event of the wireless connection being interrupted during the recording, a user can still determine exactly when the problem occurred.

EasyCap SIGGI-II

Signal Generator & Impedance Meter

SIGGI II is a laboratory tool for generating and measuring electrical signal parameters in the voltage range of typical biophysiological signals.

Functions:

The calibrated Signal Generator, issuing both built-in and recorded signals onto 1-32 channels (accompanied by a trigger signal), can be used to verify an amplifier‘s ability to correctly record amplitudes and frequencies, to visualize filter characteristics, to check linearity of DC amplifiers and to check Common Mode Rejection (CMR).

The Impedance Meter measures the impedance between 1-32 electrodes and their reference and ground electrodes. Special custom adaptors for any EEG-Recording Cap / electrode input box can be supplied. This is a comfortable way to measure impedances independent from the EEG amplifier or if there are reasons to doubt the impedance measurement routines built into the respective amplifier.

The Amplifier/Data Logger can record, amplify and store user specific signals and replay them with the Signal Generator.

The Electrode Tester measures the electrode potential of 1-32 electrodes and its changes for up to 6 hours. This unique tool is indispensable for assessing the suitability of individual electrodes for DC recordings.

Caps are compatible with most EEG Amplifier Systems in the market as well as TMS, MEG & MRI Compatible.

BrainCap Sizes

 

Layouts:

International Layout: 10/20 System Electrodes are
distance of 10% or 20% from Cz down to the hat line.

Specialized Equidistant Layout: Electrodes are equidistant to each other via trigonometry calculation.

BrainCaps

Cap Cuts:

Both cap types, Subtemporal and SubInion, are available in two cap cuts. One cap cut provides a better fit for more oval/rectangular head shapes and is commonly used worldwide (called “Caucasian cut”).
The other one is cut for rounder head shapes and typically provides a better fit for participants from countries like e.g. Korea, China, Taiwan and Japan (called “Asia Cut”).

 

Cap Fabrics:

All caps can be made with your choice of two different types of fabric: high-precision fabric and high-comfort fabric.

High-precision fabric is of medium elasticity and has advantages in that it provides a precise reproduction of electrode positions, a longer life span and a quick drying time.

High-comfort fabric is of higher elasticity and works with a variety of head shapes. In the majority of caps, we use the high-precision fabric for adult and juvenile cap sizes and the high-comfort fabric for baby cap sizes.

BrainAmp MR

BrainAMP MR

The BrainAmp MR is a proven solution for simultaneous EEG/fMRI acquisitions.

The BrainAmp MR is a compact, modular MR compatible EEG amplifier consisting of 32 unipolar channels. Each 32 channel unit can be stacked to expand the number of channels up to 256 and combined with the BrainAmp ExG MR amplifier to record EEG, EOG, EMG, ECG, GSR (Galvanic Skin Response) and many other types of bipolar and auxiliary signals.The BrainAmp MR system is powered by the rechargeable battery PowerPack, and can be used for many applications including the EEG lab for EEG/TMS co-registrations, EEG/ERP studies and Brain Computer Interface applications.

The BrainAmp MR can be placed directly inside the MRI chamber and placed right behind the subject’s head. The signal from the amplifier is then sent via optic cable to the USB interface located in the control room.  This reduces the length of electrical connections and minimizes MR gradient artifacts and RF signal induction.  The short length required for the electrical cables used to connect the electrode cap with the amplifier complies with all safety requirements for the experimental subject and reduces the chance for cable movement artifacts.
