Specifc components (hardware and software) are needed for different fields of research. There are now three plans available which show the recommended setup for:

#Brain-Computer Interface research

#ECoG experiments

#Evoked Potential experiments

The plans give a great overview of how to equip your lab and they also show how you can use the hard- and software from gtec.

You can see which components are needed, how they are connected and how to arrange the…

Immediately next to me was a poster by Dr. Deborah Falla. Dr. Falla sought to investigate how muscle fatigue would alter the velocity recovery function of sternocleidomastoid… Continue
