EEGbento

Companies and research institutions are faced with the challenge of wanting to answer neurocognitive questions without having the capacity to collect data, their own laboratories, or in-depth analytical expertise. Traditional laboratory environments often reach their limits when field studies or real-world application scenarios are required. At the same time, there is often a lack of advice on data collection, which means that important studies cannot be carried out at all or only to an insufficient extent.

With EEGbento, Fraunhofer IDMT is introducing a lean, mobile EEG system that seamlessly combines all essential components—electrodes, amplifiers, gateway, and (live) visualization —for users.

The system at a glance:

  • Miniaturized design and quick setup for high wearing comfort
  • Flexible sensor placement and online access to measurement data
  • Integrated live visualization for immediate feedback
  • On-site consulting and demonstration to specify customer-specific requirements

EEGbento links central research disciplines at Fraunhofer IDMT:

  • sensor integration
  • software development
  • hardware connection
  • signal processing.

In addition, the project expands expertise in the field of attention measurement and integrates eye movement analysis as valuable additional information. As a research demonstrator, EEGbento is available for feasibility studies and evaluations and paves the way for future innovations in mobile EEG research.

SleepWell

Did you sleep well last night? This question concerns everyone, because sleep disorders affect health in the long term. That's why we are working on a multi-sensor system close to the ear that records sleep behavior comfortably at home.

 

Connected Health

The work area Connected Health dedicates its research and development activities to sensor-based health systems that can be deployed flexibly and without clinical infrastructure.

The Oldenburg Branch for Hearing, Speech and Audio Technology HSA is funded in the program »Vorab« by the Lower Saxony Ministry of Science and Culture (MWK) and the Volkswagen Foundation for its further development.

Mobile Neurotechnologies

The group »Mobile Neurotechnologies« is working on discreet EEG systems for the analysis of brain activity - e.g. for safe workplace design or for use in health applications.
