Headset details
The PlatoWork tDCS Headset is a user-friendly tDCS device designed to make neurostimulation easy and accessible for practitioners and clients alike. PlatoWork is controlled through the PlatoApp (iOS/Android) offering 6 different stimulation modes.
The PlatoWork tDCS headset allows practitioners and researchers access to flexible and high precision and quality tDCS technology. The PlatoWork tDCS headset features three electrodes that enable users to locate the correct scalp positions to mount the device accurately, resulting in a wide range of possible montages. In addition, it is equipped with multiple layers of failsafe mechanisms, thereby preventing any malfunction of the headset.
Each electrode can act as both anode and cathode, and the headset can be tilted to sit at three different locations on the head, creating dozens of scientifically relevant applications.
tDCS has level A and level B evidence for a number of treatments, but the PlatoWork tDCS headset is not approved as a treatment in itself - but rather as a tool to make tDCS easily accessible.
