How to save OpenBCI Cyton? By pulling it from the market and releasing PiEEG version 2

Last Updated on February 18, 2024 by pg@petergamma.org

But if this not happens soon, is it not better to start soldering and coding as Scott Harden, How To Electronics and Andreas Spiess already do it?

In the current state, OpenBCI Cyton, HackEEG & PiEEG have multiple soft- and hardware bugs, as reported here:

and here:

If these devices where not buggy, would not Disterelec or Mouser Switzerland offer these devices in their shops? But they don’t.

To resolve these problems, a Ildar Rakhmatulin with a Ph.D. in hardware and software engineering would be required:

Why does OpenBCI CEO Conor Russomanno not hire Ildar Rakhmatulin to release OpenBCI Cyton Version 2?

Is PiEEG OpenBCI Cyton version 2? If so, why is PiEEG is not on the marked and developed? Is it too buggy to be sold at Digitec Switzerland, such as the Pinephone?

Currently we have three devices wich are buggy, and that is OpenBCI Cyton, HackEEG and PiEEG, and none of them works so that Robert Oostenveld, Arnaud Delorme, Scott Harden, How To Electronics and Peter Gamma would use it, but they don’t use them. Instead of having three buggy devices, we need one device that works.

Ildar Rakhmatulin has offered us PiEEG. But then he decided to pull it from the market again, for reasons we don’t now. If PiEEG is buggy as well, why does Illdar not resolve now the issues of OpenBCI Cyton?

Ildar Rakhmatulin is a BCI developer with interest in signal processing and machine learning, and the creator of PiEEG:

Ildar is a hardware and software engineer with a keen interest in neuro interfaces, biodata processing, and machine learning algorithms for EEG classification. He is is excited to connect with fellow professionals in this field. He has also contributed to open-source BCI projects such as PiEEG and ironbci, which can be found on his GitHub page:

Please feel free to reach out to Ildar Rakhmatulin for collaboration or discussion on these topics, as Illdar writes at linkedin.

Peter Gamma makes his suggestions to Ildar Rakhmatulin here, since we suppose he will not be successful by suggesting this to Illdar. We tried things like that so many times. But most of the time we tried it, we where ignored, or the forum master has locked us out, if we wanted to talk about projects like that.

Why does Ildar Rakhmatulin not offer us PiEEG and has pulled it from the market again? Is it too buggy? So why does he then not debug OpenBCI Cyton to make an OpenBCI Cyton 2? Because it is not worth it?

If so, is it not time that Ildar Rakhmatulin releases PiEEG version 2, so that Robert Oostenveld, Arnaud Delorme, Scott Harden, How To Electronics and Peter Gamma and YouTube video maker sendex can release now Python videos with PiEEG2?

OpenBCI Cyton is 10 years old and has multiple software and hardware bugs. To debug those, is eventually not worth it. But do debug those of PiEEG, which is a much simpler and powerful platfrom. Therefore go for it, Ildar Rakhmatulin an release PiEEG version 2.

And if this does not happens soon, Peter Gamma will start soldering and coding, as Scott Harden, How To Electronics and Andreas Spiess already do it, to not depend on William Croft, Connor Russomano, Shirley Zang and Ildar Rakhmatulin. And Peter Gamma has not to wait for those to solve the issues which he desribed here, but he can start with soldering and coding today.
