Why don’t X-trodes electrodes require conductive gel?

X-trodes' dry electrodes eliminate the need for conductive gel thanks to their flexible design and superior skin coupling:

  • Low Rigidity & High Surface Contact – The electrodes conform closely to the skin, maintaining strong contact even during movement.

  • Low Impedance for Clear Signals – This configuration minimizes resistance, ensuring a high signal-to-noise ratio and superior signal fidelity.

  • Sweat as a Natural Conductor – Trapped sweat acts as an endogenous electrolyte, further enhancing signal quality.
