mne.bem.fit_sphere_to_headshape#

mne.bem.fit_sphere_to_headshape(info, dig_kinds='auto', units='m', verbose=None)[source]#

Fit a sphere to the headshape points to determine head center.

Parameters
infomne.Info

The mne.Info object with information about the sensors and methods of measurement.

dig_kindslist of str | str

Kind of digitization points to use in the fitting. These can be any combination of (‘cardinal’, ‘hpi’, ‘eeg’, ‘extra’). Can also be ‘auto’ (default), which will use only the ‘extra’ points if enough (more than 4) are available, and if not, uses ‘extra’ and ‘eeg’ points.

unitsstr

Can be “m” (default) or “mm”.

New in version 0.12.

verbosebool | str | int | None

Control verbosity of the logging output. If None, use the default verbosity level. See the logging documentation and mne.verbose() for details. Should only be passed as a keyword argument.

Returns
radiusfloat

Sphere radius.

origin_head: ndarray, shape (3,)

Head center in head coordinates.

origin_device: ndarray, shape (3,)

Head center in device coordinates.

Notes

This function excludes any points that are low and frontal (z < 0 and y > 0) to improve the fit.
