The studies explore rapid EEG testing in varied environments, outside of clinical settings, laying the groundwork for the future of brain health.

Key Points:

The studies explore rapid EEG testing in varied environments, outside of clinical settings, laying the groundwork for the future of brain health.
The study demonstrated that low-cost mEEG devices both conveniently and accurately measure EEG and human-event related brain potentials (ERPs) that can predict cognitive states like fatigue.
"Our work clearly demonstrates that mobile EEG systems can be used to quickly assess the brain state of people in any environment," says Krigolson.
"These results suggest a capacity to use mobile EEG technology for brain performance assessments in industry, healthcare, and personal use settings."
