This project aims to design a new portable BrainComputer Interface (BCI) headset that can be used by non-professionals (patients, caregivers) as part of BCI therapeuticapplications in the home environment. The suitability of thedesign of the new headset under its operating conditions wasevaluated through use of mechanical testing in ComputerAided Design (CAD) software and physical prototypes.Extensive use of CAD based design was used to create a noveltestbed for future prototypes of BCI headsets. We present asolution for optimised hardware design of the BCI headsetwhich incorporates existing electronic components (dryelectrodes, portable amplifier, battery etc.)Keywords—headset, EEG, home based, Brain ComputerInterface, CAD, design
