Is Neurofeedback With An EEG Headset Safe For Kids?

If you are selecting an EEG headset for neurofeedback, it is likely natural to wonder how comfortable they are, especially when using them for a lengthy period. Let's break this down into what one should expect in terms of comfort.

·         Snugly fit

 

An EEG headset from g.tec Medical Engineering is designed to fit snugly on your head while monitoring your brain activity. Many are very lightweight, so you will not feel like you are lugging a brick around on top of your head; the actual feel will depend on the brand and model, though some users have likened it to wearing over-the-ear headphones, where the electrodes press slightly on your scalp.

 

·         Flexible fit for all sizes of the head

 

The EEGSensor for Neurofeedback adjusts for comfort. Most have straps or bands that allow you to secure them around your head without being too tight. Others, though, should check the headset's size range because some headsets are designed to fit smaller or larger heads. An uncomfortable headset tends to lead to longer periods of discomfort than that of poor-quality sound would.

 

·         Wear all-day

While EEG Headsets are fine for shorter sessions, say 30 minutes to an hour, you may experience a few pressure points around your head or near your ears while wearing one for an extended period. Most people complain about mild discomfort after several hours of continuous usage; thus, taking breaks is advisable if you're using it for a prolonged session.

What Industries Benefit The Most From Advanced BCI EEG Headsets?

 

Every day the use of electroencephalography (EEG) headsets as a form of BCI is gaining popularity in many fields/sectors. But which industries are you actually reaping handsome benefits with this innovative tech? It bears mentioning that there are still circumstances when BCI EEG headsets are invaluable; let’s take a look at several case studies.

 

a)     Healthcare and neurorehabilitation sector

b)    Gaming and entertainment sector

c)     Education and cognitive training

 

Healthcare and neurorehabilitation sector

 

Indeed, health is one of the sectors with the most Colour BCI EEG headset effects. Electroencephalography Headsets are used mostly for neurorehabilitation; that is, helping patients get over the consequences of strokes or traumatic brain injuries, since therapists can track the activity of the brain and adjust the clients’ programs accordingly.

 

Gaming and entertainment sector

 

The gaming industry is another industry that is highly benefiting from Advanced BCI Technology.

Just think about it, now you have a game that changes its difficulty depending on your current level of concentration or stress!

 

Education and cognitive training

 

In education, the novel sophisticated BCI EEG Headsets from g.tec medical engineering are being used to enhance learning and have influence over cognitive training. Since brain activity can be detected, the educators will be able to know when the learners are more attentive or when they are facing difficulty in comprehension, then adapt to compensate for the same.
