Good practices when measuring brain waves

Post by Flowsurfer »

Hi, I read in a previous post that Delta waves can be influenced by eye movement. In order to record the brain activity with less interfererence possible what would be your recommendations?

Any facial muscles near the sensors will be picked up.
So the main ones to focus on are the eyes, eyebrows, and jaw.

Keep movement minimal and/or slow and you'll be fine. Also a tight fit will prevent the band slipping off if there is movement.

You could also just disregard Delta if you're not specifically using for your calculations.

Thank you very much for the information.

I have another question, how do I access the graph Average Absolute Brain?

I tried to use the recorded file in on line graph without success.

Thank you once again

The only times I have seen people have problems viewing a Muse Monitor CSV file with the online viewer are when they have edited the CSV file in Excel and then overwritten the timestamp data with Excel's default timestamp format. Please check that is not the case for you.
