High-density electroencephalography (HD-EEG) is currently limited to laboratory environments since the application of conventional electrode caps requires skilled staff and extensive preparation. We propose and evaluate a 256-channel cap with dry multipin electrodes for HD-EEG. The 256-channel HD-EEG dry electrode cap overcomes the principal limitations of HD-EEG regarding preparation complexity and allows rapid application by not medically trained persons, enabling new use cases of mobile and home EEG.
