We are working with a small group of early-adopter labs to trial the electrode across hair types and validate its performance on their own equipment. Units are expected to ship from late 2026. Early adopters get direct input into the final design.
You know where EEG breaks down on textured hair. Here is what a different contact mechanism does about it.
That is the whole prep. No parting, no braiding, no separate protocol by hair type. The tip reaches the scalp rather than resting on the hair, so there is no gap to bridge with gel and you get through the cap faster.
The full setup guide →Scalp contact on straight, wavy, curly, coily and afro-textured hair, and across protective styles including braids. Fewer participants screened out, fewer sessions discarded.
Funders are asking harder questions about who is in your sample. An electrode validated across hair types is a checkable answer, and one most labs cannot give yet.
Early adopters are recording across hair types on their own equipment. What they find feeds into the design and the clinical file.
For labs that have struggled to record clean data across afro-textured, coily or curly hair. It is a passive, drop-in replacement, so adopting it changes nothing about how you work.
