Now available from BIOPAC… EL-CHECK Impedance Checker
Add the EL-CHECK to your recording protocol to measure the impedance between surface electrodes attached to a subject before you begin recording…then correct any noise issues before you begin to record great data!
EL-CHECK is suitable for measuring electrode contact impedance for all surface biopotential measurements, including those for ECG, EEG, EGG, EMG, EOG, Bioimpedance and Impedance Cardiography. The EL-CHECK permits simultaneous connection of up to three electrode leads, for quick impedance checking between any two electrodes.
Electrode Impedance Range Indicators: < 5 kΩ, 5-10 kΩ, 10-20 kΩ, 20-30 kΩ, 30-40 kΩ, 40-50 kΩ, > 50 kΩ
Lead Compatibility: Standard female Touchproof (1.5 mm) electrode leads, all BIOPAC electrodes and leads that terminate in female Touchproof sockets, all BN-EL and BN-Adapt series.
Testing Configurations – Switch Selectable: Active (Vin+) to Reference (Vin-), Active (Vin+) to Ground (GND), Reference (Vin-) to Ground (GND)
Many studies use hand dynamometry to objectively quantify exerted effort during experiments most commonly related to the study of motivation.
We’ll focus on this topic and go over everything you need to know to record dynamometry data in the MRI or in the lab. Topics include
– Calibrating for maximum voluntary contraction (MVC)
– Real-time access to the dynamometer signal by third-party applications
– How researchers have used this equipment
– Creating a visual task that gives feedback on exerted effort as well as rewards to the participant

Discovering and understanding what motivates humans to produce better results has intrigued many researchers. Many researchers have explored the psychophysiological processes that drive our behavior. Here are some recent studies that have used BIOPAC systems to research motivation… Motivation and Pleasure Deficits Undermine the Benefits of Social Affiliation in Psychosis. Blanchard, J. J., Smith, J. […]
Eye tracking technology has come a long way and has enabled researchers to conduct mobile experiments and track participants in real world scenarios. These featured studies demonstrate some of the use cases for mobile eye tracking technology.
