Electroencephalographic cap

摘要

An electroencephalographic (EEG) cap for a human head for use in an evoked potential autorefractometry system which includes an adjustable headband having relatively rigid straps crossing over EEG measurement regions. Inserted through the straps are self-preparing electrodes which are connected to shielded cables. The self-preparing electrodes penetrate a dead skin layer without causing bleeding during positioning of the cap and do not require a previously prepared electrode positioning site. An electrolyte solution can be applied to the electrodes and the regions for measurement after the cap is in position by an electrolyte solution pump system. The entire cap can be shielded by a metal shield dome and held in place by a chin strap.
