Abstract

A flexible printed circuit board (FPCA) of a brain computer interface (BCI) module is configured to interconnect a plurality of emitter assemblies and a plurality of detector assemblies of the BCI module. The FPCA comprises a connector portion for connecting the FPCA to a controller of the BCI module, a plurality of rigid sections, a plurality of flexible sections. A first subset of rigid sections is configured to mount the plurality of emitter assemblies. A second subset of rigid sections is configured to mount the plurality of detector assemblies. Each flexible section is configured to attach the two or more rigid sections of the plurality of rigid sections to each other. The plurality of flexible sections allows the plurality of emitter assemblies and the plurality of detector assemblies to stretch to conform to a head of a user.
