  • Publication number: 20210393946
    Abstract: In an embodiment, an electrical stimulation system can include one or more of an electrode assembly including one or more electrodes and an electronics subsystem. In some variations, each of the one or more electrodes can include a hydrophilic layer and a conductive layer. In some variations, the electronics subsystem can include one or more of a control module, power module, and a stimulus generator. In some variations, the electrical stimulation can further include one or more of an electrical attachment system, mechanical attachment system, head apparel assembly, flexible housing, and/or any other suitable component. The electrical stimulation system functions to apply electrical stimulation but can additionally or alternatively function to measure/and or record one or more biosignals from a user.

  • Patent number: 11039775
    Abstract: A system for providing an electrical interface between a transducer and a transducer support device, the system comprising: a body mounted to the transducer support device, the body comprising an interface-to-transducer coupling region; a interface-to-electronics subsystem coupling region coupled to the body and contiguous with the interface-to-transducer coupling region, the system defining a fluid sealing region surrounding at least one of the interface-to-transducer and the interface-to-electronics subsystem coupling region; the system comprising an operation mode defining a sealed electrical pathway between the transducer and the transducer support device, wherein: the fluid sealing region is coupled to a complementary transducer sealing region, and the elastically deformable coupling region is biased against an electrical contact of the transducer with the fluid sealing region preventing fluid from reaching the electrical contact of the transducer.
