A Pre-Gelled EEG Electrode and Its Application in SSVEP-Based BCI
IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering(2022)
摘要
Electroencephalogram (EEG) electrodes are critical devices for brain-computer interface and neurofeedback. A pre-gelled (PreG) electrode was developed in this paper for EEG signal acquisition with a short installation time and good comfort. A hydrogel probe was placed in advance on the Ag/AgCl electrode before wearing the EEG headband instead of a time-consuming gel injection after wearing the headband. The impedance characteristics were compared between the PreG electrode and the wet electrode. The PreG electrode and the wet electrode performed the Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) application experiment to evaluate their performance. The average impedance of the PreG electrode can be decreased to 43
$\text{k}\Omega $
or even lower, which is higher than the wet electrode with an impedance of 8
$\text{k}\Omega $
. However, there is no significant difference in classification accuracy and information transmission rate (ITR) between the PreG electrode and the wet electrode in a 40 target BCI system based on Steady State Visually Evoked Potential (SSVEP). This study validated the efficiency of the proposed PreG electrode in the SSVEP-based BCI. The proposed PreG electrode will be an excellent substitute for wet electrodes in an actual application with convenience and good comfort.
