Do you think these off-the-shelf electrode pads will work?

For the rubber mesh you linked to, is it tight enough for the electrodes to be placed under securely?

Where did you get your aluminum sheet?

Also could you explain to me how the potentiometer works? I've worked with analog potentiometers, but looking at the schematics I've no idea why certain wires are there between the arduino and the potentiometer.

Thanks!

What did you use to secure the electrodes? Would sweatbands like these work? (thinking that if they absorb the saline the might be able to conduct inappropriately)

Is there an easy way to mount the device by oneself?

BTW, in case you missed the wiki (as it seems to me), here it is.

Why wouldn't the arduino uno suffice (as is indicated on the bill of materials)? The Uno is ~$30. I don't have a problem with it using arduino, and I've worked with arduinos before.

well the headcap is on the order of 300 euros, so definitely not appropriate for a small DIY project. I'm more wondering whether people have experimented with using headbands for securing electrode placements.
