Are you the last one who want to make the ADS1299 platform more affordable or develop it further with more than 16 channels? – turn off the light

OpenBCI evolved 10 years ago from an Arduino shield:

What is obvious that v3 used a microcontroller which uses very little power. HackEEG, PiEEG and BEATS are in that sense not as far developed, and a failure to this date. Since no one uses this platform. EEG noise caused by the microcontroller or the single board computer could be the reason.

Indonesian scientists managed to develop a 32 channel device based on the ADS1299 demo kit. They developed their own firmware which is not open source and used daisy chain algorithms. But their device is not on the market, the software neither, and it is not open source as well.

The BEATS device, a complicated device based on the Raspberry Pi 4 used daisy chain and is open source. But who want to pick up a development which has been abandoned for unknown reasons?

Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org believes, if you want more than 16 channels, InfluxDB with TGAM is the better solution. Since we know of no one who showed us a device with the ADS1299 with more than 16 channels which could convince us to take it over. And the hardware costs of InfluxDB devices are cheaper.
