Recording EEG From Prefrontal Cortex Using BioAmp EXG Pill
Tutorial for recording brainwaves from the prefrontal cortex (Fp1/Fp2 positions) using BioAmp EXG Pill and Brain BioAmp Band with Arduino Uno and Spike Recorder visualization.
Firmware:Arduino
Use Cases:Education
Overview
Learn to record EEG signals from the prefrontal cortex on your forehead using the BioAmp EXG Pill and Brain BioAmp Band. This tutorial covers electrode placement at Fp1 and Fp2 positions per the International 10-20 system.
Hardware Required
- BioAmp EXG Pill
- Brain BioAmp Band (or gel electrodes)
- BioAmp Cable v3
- Arduino Uno
- Jumper cables
- Nuprep Skin Preparation Gel
How It Works
The Brain BioAmp Band is placed on the forehead with IN+ and IN- electrodes at Fp1 and Fp2 positions. The BioAmp EXG Pill amplifies the microvolt-level brain signals and the Arduino digitizes them for visualization in Spike Recorder.
What You'll Learn
- EEG recording from the prefrontal cortex
- Proper electrode placement on the forehead
- Using Spike Recorder for real-time brain signal visualization
- Understanding prefrontal cortex activity patterns
