BEL's HD EEG Geodesic Head Web improves durability, fit and speed in application

New Modular Pentagonal Element Design

The Geodesic Head Web is constructed with a new geometric design, the Modular Pentagonal
Element
, that minimizes the stretch required to fit the 2D tension structure to the 3D head shape. This allows improved fit to diverse human head shapes, and it allows use of a tougher elastomer to minimize stretching out over time, while maintaining a comfortable fit.
