More Product Info

  •  


    The Ultracortex Mark IV EEG headset is a scientifically-validated device.

    Important Notes

    • This kit includes electrodes, however we HIGHLY suggest adding these comfort prongs which combine the best of wearability and Ag-AgCl signal quality: Dry 5 mm EEG comb electrodes
    • The Ultracortex "Mark IV" EEG Headset kits DO NOT INCLUDE a Cyton Board or Ganglion Board. These items must be purchased separately.
    • Please watch the Assembly Tutorial and read the Ultracortex Tutorial.
    • IMPORTANT PRODUCT USE NOTE  - Please note before adjusting/twisting a blue electrode mount, first disconnect it from the colored cable. This would extend the lifetime of the electrode mounts.

    What comes in the box?

    Picking Your Size (Head Circumference)

    Be sure to get the right size for your head! Obtain the circumference using a tape measure wrapped horizontally across the widest part of your head.

     

    • Small = 42-50cm
    • Medium = 48-58cm
    • Large = 58-65cm 

     

    The adjustable electrodes allow for overlap in the size range.

       Up & Running in Under 30 Seconds 

      One of the great things about the Ultracortex design is how fast it is to get it up-and-running. Adjusting the headset for different head shapes and sizes is easy - just rotate the blue electrode holder. Once you adjusted the electrode holder at each node, you can put the headset on and get up to 16 channels of EEG data streaming in under 30 seconds. Check out the video below!

    The sensor well functions

    "The sensor well functions"

    — Muhammad M. (4/5)

    Overall, great product. A couple

    "Overall, great product. A couple things would elevate it to a very robust product. The wire connection to the electrode. It broke. I can't twist with the cable attached. I know you tell that in the documentation, but still, I think this is a short-sided design. The other problem is packet loss. It does happen, and it affects my BCI. I have to use an USB extensor. I shouldn't have to do that. By design, either I should get a cabled/blue-tooth/wireless solution. This packet loss is a design flaw. That's the only reason I don't give you all stars. Actually, I have a third one. The spiky electrodes. I know there are those comfortable tips. Problem with these are multiple. . . they are cumbersome to replace, they only last 10 sessions, and they are really expensive."
