Wonder what your brain looks like while watching commercials? Or, more to the point, what the electrical activity in your brain looks like? The folks at Sands Research have helped Neuromarketing readers by making available videos from five of the most engaging (by their metrics) 2009 Super Bowl ads.
Each video shows the commercial in one part of the frame and, next to it, measured EEG activity in different parts of the brain. EEG measurements make great videos because of the high sampling frequency. EEG readings are captured by having subjects wear a cap with many electrodes. While the data does not offer the three-dimensonal localization of brain activity that fMRI does, the speed, ease of use, and lower cost of EEG tests makes them a favorite of some neuromarketing firms.
