444b / eegwithraspberrypi

Open-Source board for converting RaspberryPI to Brain-computer interface

Easy way to the neuroscience world with the shield for Raspberry Pi. Open-source.

To Buy - PiEEG is available in the market in our partner shop Elecrow

Linkedin for updates (Not medical device)

It is not a medical device!!! And can not be used for any medical purposes!!!

Power supply - only battery 5V, please read datasheet!!!!!

You are fully responsible for your personal decision to purchase this device and, ultimately, for its safe use. PiEEG is not a medical device and has not been certified by any government regulatory agency for use with the human body. Use it at your own risk.

This project is the result of several years of work on the development of BCI. We believe that the easiest way to get started with biosignals is to use a shield. We will try to reveal the process of reading EEG signals as fully and clearly as possible. Crowdsupply

Warning

The device must operate only from a battery - 5 V. Complete isolation from the mains power.! The device MUST not be connected to any kind of mains power, via USB or otherwise

How it Works

1.1.Read_data.c C script for read data in real-time and save to txt file
1.2.Read_data.cpp C++ script for read data in real-time and save to txt file
real_time.py GUI python script for read data in real-time
robot_control.py script to control a robot by blinking

Connect the shield to Raspberry PI 3 or RaspberryPI4 and after that connect the device to a battery (power supply) and connect electrodes. Full galvanic isolation from mains required.
This also applies to the monitor. Use only a monitor that is powered by the RaspberryPI, as in the picture below, left. Electrodes positioned according to International 10-20 system, right.

Description of the code

Python script dont allow reading data from ADS1299 with the frequency of 250 Hz. Necessary to use .c or .cpp scripts for reading data in real-time and python for signal processing and vialuzation.

For beginners

During the measurement, in addition to artifacts caused by muscle activity, be concerned about the increased resistance between the body and the floor. For example, in the picture below, the moment when the feet touch the floor with and without an insulated shoe. Without insulated shoes - increased noise is noticeable
