Figure 4. Effects of hair braids on fNIRS signal quality in posterior temporal and frontal regions.

Figure 4.

Plots show changes in the haemodynamic response of HbO 2 (red) and HHb (blue) at each channel position on the child’s head. A close correspondence can be seen between the location of hair braids and noise levels in the signal. It can also be seen that it is possible to obtain good signal to noise in channels neighbouring those affected by the braiding. Image copyright: Sarah Lloyd-Fox.
