# Recommended Emotiv headsets

We recommend using an Emotiv headset that produces performance metrics. These include EPOC X, EPOC+, and Insight

**If you’re participating in a Citizen Science Experiment you must use one of the Emotiv headsets above. Virtual Brainwear does not produce EEG data so your contribution will be invalid.**

For information on setting up your Emotiv headset and achieving good contact quality, please refer to the Citizen Science headset guide.
