IMU + EEG

IMU + EEG

Integrating Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) with Electroencephalography (EEG) provides a synchronized understanding of both brain activity and physical movement in dynamic environments. IMUs, typically comprising accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers, capture real-time data on motion, orientation, and body kinematics. When combined with EEG, which measures brain activity, this setup allows for the study of brain-body interactions during naturalistic movements.

This is particularly useful in areas like sports science, fall prediction, human-robot interaction, and understanding motor control deficits in neurological conditions without the constraints of a laboratory setting.

Features:
  • Brain-Body Synchronization: Links brain activity directly to physical movement.
  • Real-world Data Collection: Enables studies in natural, unconstrained environments.
  • Movement Artifact Reduction: Helps distinguish brain signals from movement noise in EEG.
  • Gait & Balance Analysis: Correlates brain activity with locomotion patterns.
  • Human-Robot Interaction: Facilitates intuitive control and understanding of user intent.
