In wet electrodes, a gel or saline liquid is used to increase the conductivity value, however, it tends to dry over time. On the contrary, gel or saline liquid is not required on the dry electrode. The use of certain types of electrode in EEG influences Power Spectral Density (PSD) of brain signals. Therefore, this study compared the EEG signal produced by Emotiv using the two different types of electrodes and a specific stimulus. This study was conducted using Emotiv EPOC (wet) and Insight (dry). The Temporal (T7 and T8) and Anterior Frontal (AF3 and AF4) electrodes from both devices were used to be compared. An audio stimulus that contains a story was chosen followed by a small task related to the story. The data acquisition was performed in 36 minutes to maintain the stability of the two types of electrodes. Three minutes of recordings in resting condition were conducted on both before and after given audio stimulus. Audio stimulation followed by a small task was performed for thirty minutes. The data analysis has consisted of EEG data pre-processing using centering and filtering the data, followed by PSD calculation using the Welch periodogram with Hanning window. The result showed that the decrement percentage of PSD after stimulation from wet was higher than dry electrodes.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Brain signals,Dry and wet,Dry electrode,Frontal areas,Hanning window,Power spectral densities (PSD),Welch periodogram,Wet and dry[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1505/1/012069[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
