Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Signal Processing

Background:

  • Electroencephalography (EEG) requires precise temporal alignment for accurate analysis of neural activity.
  • Techniques like ERPs, ERD/ERS, EEG-fMRI, and hyperscanning depend on reliable synchronization with stimuli and external devices.
  • Existing hardware synchronization solutions can be expensive and inaccessible for some researchers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design, test, and validate a cost-effective EEG Synchronization Box (ESB).
  • To provide a reliable hardware-based synchronization solution for EEG and related neuroimaging techniques.
  • To enable simultaneous conditioning and distribution of SYNC signals to multiple devices.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a novel EEG Synchronization Box (ESB) capable of handling analog and digital SYNC signals.
  • Implementation of hardware-based synchronization using a SYNC signal injection method.
  • Testing and validation of the ESB's electrical and functional performance.

Main Results:

  • The designed ESB successfully conditions and distributes SYNC signals to multiple devices simultaneously.
  • The ESB ensures reliable temporal alignment crucial for millisecond-scale EEG analysis.
  • The device was validated to possess similar electrical and functional features to commercial alternatives.

Conclusions:

  • The EEG Synchronization Box (ESB) offers a practical and affordable solution for researchers needing precise EEG synchronization.
  • The ESB facilitates advanced EEG methodologies by ensuring accurate timing across devices.
  • DIY construction with basic skills makes this synchronization solution accessible to a wider research community.
