[Simnibs-discuss] Using Captrak coordinates for the optimization

[Hyoungkyu Kim]

Hi Jesper,

Thank you so much for your reply.
The positions of EEG channels are scanned by the Captrak device after
wearing EEG cap and we can know the actual coordinates of EEG channels.
The anatomical references of the Captrak system are  Nz, Cz, LPA, and RPA.

I thought I need to consider and fit the reference points properly when I
transfer the Captrak coordinates to the MNI Coordinate to use in SimNIBS
against than simple transforming of coordinates.
I wonder if my concern makes sense to you?

Thank you!

Best,
Kyu
