EOG

Compatible with SAGA and APEX

Eye movement artifacts are hard to prevent. The subject can be instructed to not blink or to look in one direction, but this can increase the cognitive load of a subject and is not always possible. By placing electrodes above, below, and lateral to the eye(s), the electrical activity caused by the movement of the eyeball (EOG) can be recorded in isolation.

We have designed two amplifiers for EEG recordings: SAGA and APEX. Our SAGA amplifier has 4 bipolar inputs that can be used to measure EOG with micro-electrodes alongside 32-, 64- or 128-channel EEG. Our APEX amplifier is a wireless, mobile EEG system. APEX can be combined with the WaveX wireless bipolar system from Cometa Systems to record EOG.

Using the isolated EOG signal as input, post-processing algorithms like regression and blind-source separation can remove the artifacts. TMSi has two software options for removing eye movements:

  • We offer a Python interface that allows users to record EEG data. The Python interface has an example script that shows how to remove eye blinks using independent-component analysis (ICA). Read more about how to remove eyeblinks using ICA in this knowledge-based article.

  • We also offer a MATLAB interface with an integration with EEGLAB. EEGLAB is a useful interactive MATLAB toolbox that can be used to analyze EEG and EOG data and perform e.g. blind-source separation techniques like ICA.

Bipolar EMG

Compatible with SAGA

Combining high-density EMG (HD-EMG) with bipolar EMG recordings offers a more comprehensive view of muscle function. For example, the combination of HD-EMG and bipolar EMG signals can be used for controlling a robotic arm, a scenario currently being explored in the ongoing HARIA  research project that TMSi actively contributes to. Moreover, HD-EMG and bipolar EMG can be combined in research studies with (electrical) stimulation. HD-EMG signals can be used to analyze motor units in the targeted muscle and bipolar EMG can be used to determine the stimulation parameters objectively (e.g. if the stimulation strength is correct for the intended neural pathways). Learn more about the differences between HD-EMG and bipolar EMG in this article.

Alternatively, combining EEG with bipolar EMG recordings can help study how brain activity and muscle activity interact during movement.

We specialize in developing amplifiers for EEG and HD-EMG research. In addition to measuring EEG and HD-EMG, bipolar EMG can be measured simultaneously with either a (1) wired or (2) wireless solution.

(Dual) Bipolar leads can be connected to a SAGA amplifier to measure 4 bipolar EMG signals. Next to snap-on electrodes, you can also measure bipolar EMG using micro-electrodes for small muscles, which come with the same connector as the snap-on variant.

Alternatively, with the integration of the Cometa Systems WaveX EMG+IMU systems, bipolar EMG can be measured wirelessly in combination with SAGA. Read more about this integration here.

ECG / HRV

Compatible with SAGA and APEX

Cardiac activity, measured with ECG, can be combined with other measurement modalities to offer additional insights. For example, cardiac activity can help study physiological arousal in sports science studies. From the ECG signal, the heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV) can be derived. HRV is a commonly used parameter in psychological studies.

Besides providing useful information, cardiac activity can also cause artifacts in both EEG and (HD-)EMG measurements. To remove cardiac activity, isolated ECG can be measured alongside the EEG or HD-EMG signals. We have two amplifiers to measure HD-EMG and EEG: SAGA (both HD-EMG and EEG) and APEX (EEG). SAGA has inputs for two dual-bipolar leads. With a (dual-)bipolar EMG cable, it is possible to measure ECG in isolation. APEX can be combined with the wireless Cometa system to record ECG alongside EEG. From the ECG signal, peaks can be detected to calculate HRV.

It is also possible to measure standalone ECG with SAGA. SAGA has a 32-channel multi-cable with snap-on electrodes. Using this cable, a standard 12-lead ECG can be performed. For the 12-lead ECG, six electrodes are placed on the chest and four electrodes are placed on the extremities. Using these ten electrodes, the heart’s electrical activity can be investigated from twelve different angles.

Unipolar Cables
