By using electrodes placed on the scalp, EEG captures oscillatory patterns that provide a high temporal resolution, making it suitable for studying fast neural dynamics. The method is frequently used to investigate various processes, including attention, memory, and perception. In addition to investigating brain states such as flow and alertness. While EEG is advantageous for its high temporal precision, it has limitations in spatial resolution and the inability to capture activity from deep brain structures. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our system<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li> EEGO sports system by ANT Neuro. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Useful links<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/testlivesalfordac.sharepoint.com\/:b:\/s\/PsyTech\/EZNWruovj7xOqkuC7Q_8rWgB1_O28T2l1brX90KLgzluIw?e=nZIRpG\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">User manual<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=w-t9pTjBI1A&amp;list=PLwqz-4IQveO_IhB_KvPZGrBT-yiwqMovZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ANT Neuro webinars<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/eeglab.org\/tutorials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Analyzing EEG data using EEGLAB<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find the risk assessment for all our equipment by clicking <a href=\"https:\/\/hub.salford.ac.uk\/psytech\/psytechsalford\/health-safety\/risk-assessments\/\">here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Further Reading<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Keil, A., Debener, S., Gratton, G., Jungh\u00f6fer, M., Kappenman, E.
