OpenBCI/Bitalino/ADS1299EEG boards with 24/32/64/128/256 EEG channels?

Last Updated on January 20, 2022 by pg@petergamma.org

  1. OpenBCI EEG (up to 16 EEG channels):

«No OpenBCI products are capable of 32 or 64 channels, even with “external trigger” idea. The master clock must be aligned exactly for all ADS1299 chips.Such an expandable product IS on our TODO list.»

2. Bitalino EEG (up to 18 EEG channels):

“Per BITalino main board (aka BITalino Core) it is possible to acquire up to 6 channels, 4 with 10-bit resolution (A1-A4) and 2 with 6-bit resolution (A5 & A6). Up to three BITalino Cores can be used, for a total of 18 channels.”

3. ADS1299 EEGFE-PDK (up to 32 EEG channels):

5. Is it possible to integrate multiple EEG devices with InfluxDB up to 256 channels?

6. Projects by Andreas Spiess and Enric Sala:

did a similar project with his wheather station. Enric Sala, Software Engineer and PhD in Applied Data Science for the improvement of the Energy Efficiency of HVAC systems in Smart Buildings, did a project with house sensors and wrote the Matlab client for InfluxDB:

William Croft from OpenBCI commented to the topic Influx Database and OpenBCI:

“The ‘external trigger’ approach will STILL not work. ALL CHANNELS need to sample at exactly the same moment in time. Otherwise many metrics such as phase, coherence, P300 sample averaging, etc., are meaningless.

larger number of channels ? — OpenBCI Forum

20.1.22

Are the metrics, phase, coherence, P300 sample averaging necessary for all applications?

20.1.22

Can these parameters not be calculated in a different way?
