[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electroencephalogram (EEG) acquisition technology, specifically a metal dry electrode device applied to various dry EEG acquisition devices. Background Technology
[0002] Dry electrodes are electrodes that do not require the use of conductive gel. They are mainly used to measure bioelectric potential signals, such as electrocardiogram (ECG), electroencephalogram (EEG), and electromyogram (EMG) signals. Since no skin preparation or conductive gel application is required, dry electrodes are well-suited for future health monitoring, rehabilitation, disease diagnosis and treatment, brain-computer interface (BCI) testing, and human-computer interaction systems.
[0003] Existing metal dry electrode devices require pre-drilled mounting positions on the EEG acquisition device's headgear before connecting to the dry electrode. However, different EEG acquisition devices require different mounting positions for the dry electrode, and the electrode's position cannot be freely adjusted. Therefore, dry electrodes are not suitable for different EEG acquisition devices and are inconvenient to use. To address this issue, we propose a metal dry electrode device applicable to various dry EEG acquisition devices. Utility Model Content
