The advantages of Andrey Parfenov’s BrainFlow for instance for the Muse & OpenBCI – PETER GAMMA (Director & Physiologist), MEDITATION RESEARCH INSTITUTE SWITZERLAND (MRIS)

Last Updated on April 17, 2024 by pg@petergamma.org

We found here a demonstration of Andrey Parfenov’s BrainFlow:

Is this not at the level of top universities such as the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich? For comparison we have a demonstration of OpenBCI Galea:

Are there any physiologists of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich reading the site www.petergamma.org?, If so, write in the comments what you think about OpenBCI Galea.

BrainFlow

solved many issues we had with streaming for instance of the Muse and OpenBCI.
We have BrainFlow examples for Python.
But BrainFlow is little known to this date.
And we do not know how good it works.
We do not know if it has issues.
But we think it is worth trying to see what is possible with it.
OpenBCI GUI offers a BrainFlow streaming option.
OpenBCI LSL was not recommended anymore in the www.openbci.com forum.
OpenBCI OCS was not very interesting for us personally, altough there are examples for it.
LSL does not run on Raspberry Pi’s, but BrainFlow
The Muse does only offer OCS streaming over Android apps
On the contrast, for instance OpenBCI can be attached directly to a Raspberry Pi over BrainFlow without an Android app.
If we have learned to deal with BrainFlow streaming, can we not also attach TGAM EEG modules and stream EEG data to InfluxDB?
We can learn on this path to build our own EEG multi-sensor devices.

OpenBCI software was critizised by FieldTrip developer Robert Oostenveld in the following words:

“The software ecosystem is rather spotty, there are multiple subprojects that are not functional and seem abandoned.”

Improved touch-proof enclosure for OpenBCI

Does BrainFlow not offer a new and interesting interface for people who want to connect the Muse and OpenBCI for instance to the Python examples wich are offered in BrainFlow, to do some experiments with these soft- and hardware platforms, to find out what we can do with it?

Information for product sellers who do stock market speculation and scalping with products mentioned by Peter Gamma on www.petergamma.org.

According to the little experience of Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org, many of the products listed here are still full of issues which need to be resolved. If you do stock market speculation and sculping with those, you will loose Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org as a buyer of these products and as a reviewer. Is this not risky? Will you not loose a majority of your costumers as well?

And is it not so, that society in general does not accept stock market speculation and scalping with products as those which are listed here? And will you not be politically incapable of finding a majority of the voters if you do stock market speculation and sculping with these products?

And as a consequence will you not be condemned and punished by a political referendum soon? Especially if you do this to a Swiss, since are not majority of Swiss against stock market speculations and sculping with people on a budget? And people in Switzerland are known for a lot of political referendums, since we have direct democracy in this country.

And Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org will fight up to the European Court of Human Rights against people who do stock market speculation and sculping with the products which are mentioned on www.petergamma.org. And if they do not have yet the legal basis there to do so, he will fight for it.
