fights since years for the OpenBCI WIFI shield to come back. Peter Gamma is interested in fast gamma waves. And the fasted EEG transmission is the wired transmission and the WIFI transmission
- The Muse has only Bluetooth transmission
- OpenBCI has Bluetooth transmission.
- It has a special integrated RFDuino that communicates with the RFDuino on the Cyton board
- We suppose only this makes it possible that the 8 to 16 EEG channel can be transmitted over Bluetooth, since Bluetooth is a bottle neck which limits transmission speeds
- In examples with 16 channels we have seen that the EEG transmission is quiet slow with OpenBCI
- But how slow exactly is it?
MbrainTrain Smarting PRO
- uses Bluetooth 5.0
- soft- and hardware upgrades offers 64 channel EEG streaming at 1 000 hertz
- supports native Bluetooth 5.0
- it supports data transmission of up to 1 mbit per second
- this means32 channel can be transmitted at 1 000 hertz
- it can also sample at 2 k Hz an store the data to an SD card
mBrainTrain Smarting Pro X
- uses Bluetooth 5.0
- soft- and hardware upgrades offers 64 channel EEG streaming at 1 000 hertz
