You can have the most sensitive detectors in the world connected to the best amplifiers, but if the optode is not in good contact with the scalp, all of this is wasted. One of the lessons learned over the years is that there is no one solution that suits all needs. We have worked hard to obtain the tools and skills to be able to look at individual needs and come up with unique solutions. Brainsight includes features that allow you to take control of cap design so you can easily make your own custom configurations.<\/p>\n<p>Despite our exit from the hardware manufacturing for NIRS, we continue to help anyone interested in using navigation to design custom optode layouts and custom caps. Brainsight has many features to help make this possible and we are happy to share our experience and even designs of optode holders to contribute to your efforts.<\/p>\n\n<table id=\"tablepress-4\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-4\">\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Elastomer Strips<\/p><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MathieuHeadWithStrips-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-1151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MathieuHeadWithStrips-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MathieuHeadWithStrips-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MathieuHeadWithStrips-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MathieuHeadWithStrips.png 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/td><td class=\"column-2\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">Elastomer Patch<\/p><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MotorPatch-271x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"271\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-1150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MotorPatch-271x300.png 271w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MotorPatch-541x600.png 541w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MotorPatch-768x852.png 768w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/MotorPatch.png 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 271px) 100vw, 271px\" \/><\/td><td class=\"column-3\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">EEG Cap<\/p><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mathieu_cap-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" class=\"aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-1152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mathieu_cap-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mathieu_cap-600x600.png 600w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mathieu_cap-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.rogue-research.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/mathieu_cap.png 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<!-- #tablepress-4 from cache -->\n<h2>Design the patch or cap array<\/h2>\n<p>We have developed model heads based on the ICBM average head\/brain scaled to correspond to standard EEG head sizes.
