Technical Information:

Measurement data:

• 12-bit raw brainwave data (3 - 100 Hz) with a sampling rate of 512 Hz
• Output of the EEG frequency spectrum (alpha, beta, etc.)
• Output of the proprietary eSense indicators for attention and Relaxation
• EEG signal quality analysis (can be used to determine poor sensor contact and the correct fit of the headset on the head)

Measured EEG frequency ranges and their context:

• Delta (1-3 Hz) is associated with deep sleep, hypnosis and muscle artefacts*
• Theta (4-7 Hz) is associated with tiredness, inattention, deep Relaxation
• Alpha 1 (8-9 Hz) is associated with a relaxed state, alertness
• Alpha 2 (10-12 Hz) is associated with a relaxed state, alertness
• Beta 1 (13-17 Hz) is associated with good attention, motor calmness
• Beta 2 (18-30 Hz) is associated with very good attention, information processing
• Beta 3 (31-40 Hz) is associated with tension
• Beta 4 (41-50 Hz) is associated with tension, panic, muscle artefacts*.
