Heroes among scientists who sacrificed themselves for low-cost high-quality research & medical grade physiological sensor devices

1.) Arnaud Delorme did a great job with the LSL example for the Muse 1 and Muse SDK, and sacrificed time for this. Unfortunately, shortly after that, the Muse SDK from Interaxon was pulled from the market.

2.) The group of the Cardiologist Dr. Milind Desai from Cleveland Clinic in Ohio wrote two high-quality papers about consumer grade sport sensor validation, where they found out, that the Apple watch 1 and the Apple watch 3 are the most accurate ones, and sacrificed time for this. But shortly after that, Apple released the Apple watches 4 to Ultra, which would necessitate new validation studies to keep up with Rob ter Horst.

3) The MEDITATION RESEARCH INSTITUTE SWITZERLAND (MRIS) was promoting low-cost high-quality reserach & medical grade physiological sensor devices in the Garmin forum, the OpenBCI forum, and the Matlab forum,and sacrificed time for this. As a consequence we where locked out of these three communities, although we did not promote any specific software or hardware products, and do not sell any specific hardware products, and where only promoting and discussing the idea of low-cost high-quality research-grade physiological sensor devices, and we where locket out for reasons we cannot follow. It was not worth it for us personally to start a fight to unlock our account in these communities to this date.
