MNE Version 1.6.0
Operating system: Windows 10 Pro

Hi, I’m still getting used to MNE python. I am trying to make custom sensors with a custom shape and size. It seems the only sensors I can read in are the default ones when setting my channel types to be ‘mag’ or ‘grad’ for example. This being through using the ‘mne.create_info’ function. Is there a way I would be able to set the shape and size of the coils in MNE python?

Have you looked at: mne.channels.make_dig_montage — MNE 1.6.1 documentation

I would recommend you dive into exploring the resulting data structures and see what you need to change.

Be sure to stay on the same version of MNE-Python, and be aware that using and changing “private” data structures (that is, structures that are not intended for manipulation by the user) can be a bit tricky.
