Revolutionary Scalp Tattoos Transform Brain Monitoring Technology

TL;DR Summary
Researchers have developed electronic tattoos that can measure brain waves, offering a quicker and more convenient alternative to traditional EEG tests. These e-tattoos, made from conductive ink, are applied to the scalp and can detect brain activity as effectively as conventional electrodes. The technology, which is still being refined for automation and wireless data transmission, could simplify the process of diagnosing neurological conditions and potentially allow for overnight brain monitoring.
