Buy our product or leave the system: the attitute of YouTube video makers who offer products which contain the ADS1299 EEG chip?

Last Updated on February 11, 2024 by pg@petergamma.org

We found again and again offers mainly on YouTube who offers EEG products with the ADS1299 EEG. We are a critical journal and none of products fitted our needs. The result of our critisism was not that these products where developed further. On the contrary, these products where pulled from the market, as for instance the example of HackEEG:

and PiEEG has shown:

Currently no product is available which contains the ADS1299 EEG chip which fit’s our need. And we do not know of a product developer who seems to be interested in developing his product further. So the only option which remains for us personally are products which are based on single EEG chips and InfluxDB:

If we look at the devices which are reviewed by YouTube video maker Cody Rall MD with Techforpsych:

we can see that there are different devices with 4 EEG channels, from which we suppose that they do not contain the ADS1299 EEG chip. If we look at the above picture with Cody Rall MD, did he not find an EEG device which fit’s his needs either? If what else can be done than building our EEG devices by ourselves?
