Dr. Fred Travis, neuroscientist & Cirector of the Center for Brain, Consciousness & Cognition Research at the Maharishi University, Fairfield, Iowa uses BIOSEMI products: if his budget allows

We have here the pricing of BIOSEMI amplifiers:

and a table with the pricing of BIOSEMI, www.openbci.com, and BIOSIGNALS amplifiers:

  • BIOSEMI amplifiers are a no go for Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org due to their high prices.
  • Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org was looking for years for affordable alternatives to products from www.openbci.com, but did not find those.
  • Research grade amplifers from BIOSIGNALS where around 400 Euros for 4 channels and 800 Euros for 8 channels.
  • But they are now €1.950,00 and €1.950,00 respectively.
  • They seem not to be stable in price.
  • Are the prices linked to BIOSEMI amplifiers by stock market speculators and sculpers?

For these reasons, we invite everybody who is interested on the long-term on such devices, to choose (or more precisely build by ourselves) products based on InfluxDB instead:

These device cost much less, have become easier to build, are stable in price, and offer new and more contemporary software platforms.
