1. A method, comprising:
- receiving neuro-response data from a user at a dry electrode arranged on a flexible electroencephalography (EEG) headset, wherein the dry electrode is configured to make a point contact with the scalp of the user;
individually amplifying the neuro-response data from the dry electrode to generate amplified neuro-response data from the dry electrode;
aggregating the amplified neuro-response data with amplified neuro-response data from a plurality of other dry electrodes on the flexible EEG headset, wherein dry electrodes on the flexible EEG headset are arranged to avoid measuring neuro-response data from the temporal region;
analyzing the neuro-response data to determine the effectiveness of the marketing and entertainment materials presented to the user.

Abstract
Efficient and effective mechanisms for collecting electroencephalography (EEG) data are provided to allow neuro-response data collection for in situ engagement monitoring and tracking. An EEG headset includes multiple point electrodes individually isolated and amplified. In some examples, multiple left side scalp electrodes exert forces that counterbalance forces from multiple right side scalp electrodes to secure the headset to allow front electrodes and rear electrodes to contact the scalp. Electrodes are arranged to avoid contact with the temporal region. The headset can be configured to perform processing while supporting both continuous input and output.
