Printed Dry Electrodes and Wireless System for High-Fidelity EEG, EMG and Temperature Recordings

该项目的目标是为最先进的肌电、脑电和体温记录系统开发和测试新的打印方法。特别是，我们将设计便于医院或实验室环境外未经培训的人员使用的系统，从而使皮肤电生理学的使用成为日常技术的革命性变化。该系统将允许与个人计算机(PC)和便携式设备进行无线通信，并将基于允许快速而简单地放置在皮肤上的电极贴片。电极阵列的设计将是个性化的，将提供机械稳定性、长期记录和最重要的用户舒适性。该电极将利用导电聚合物PEDOT和PEDOT基复合材料作为活性材料，通过喷墨打印等低成本打印方法在柔性基板上制造。

The objective of this project is to develop and test novel printing methodologies for state of the art sEMG, EEG and temperature recording systems. In particular, we will design the systems for the ease of use by untrained personnel outside a hospital or laboratory environment, thus revolutionizing the use of skin electrophysiology into everyday technology. The system will allow wireless communication to a personal computer (PC) and portable devices, and will be based on an electrode patch that allows a quick and simple placement on the skin. The design of the electrode array will be personalized and will offer mechanical stability, long-term recordings and above all – user comfort. The electrode will be fabricated by low-cost printing methods such as inkjet printing onto flexible substrates utilizing the conductive polymer PEDOT and PEDOT-based composites as active materials.
