Abstract

A measurement device is provided in various lengths determined by head size. The measurement devices are manufactured from an agile, non-elastic material enclosing an open structure on the length of the device that coincides with an international system for placement of scalp electrodes.

Claims

1. A measurement system, comprising a plurality of electrode locators of various lengths, said electrode locators formed of agile non-elastic material enclosing a plurality of open structures along said lengths that coincide with an international system for placement of scalp electrodes.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein said international system for placement of electrodes is the 10/20 international system for placement of electrodes.

3. The system of claim 1 wherein said open structures are comprised of eyelets appropriately inserted into said material along its lengths.

4. The system of claim 1 wherein a length dimension is indicated on an extremity of each electrode location.

5. The system of claim 1 wherein said material is disposable.
