Abstract
This invention introduces advanced wearable EEG technology designed for continuous monitoring and analysis of brain activity. It addresses key challenges in signal acquisition, noise reduction, motion artifacts, and long-term user comfort through the use of flexible, soft conductive materials and an innovative electrode architecture featuring an internal cavity that ensures stable skin contact when placed over the mastoid bone behind the ear. The system supports multiple lightweight and adaptable form factors, including ear-cuffs and EEG patches suitable for overnight and extended wear. Optimized shielding, flexible materials, and user-centered mechanical design enable reliable, high-quality brainwave data capture in real-world conditions, overcoming the limitations of traditional rigid EEG systems. This platform enables continuous brainwave monitoring for applications such as cognitive research, neurofeedback, emotional state detection, mental health monitoring, and preventive healthcare. By combining comfort, adaptability, and signal reliability, this invention represents a significant advancement in wearable brain health monitoring technology.
