PiEEG is on the market for more than a year. And PiEEG developer Ildar Rakhmatulin continues to bring new EEG kits onto the market:
But there are hardly any users is the PiEEG forum:
https://pieeg.com/forum-pieeg-low-cost-brain-computer-interface/forum/pieeg
But why? Is this not a sign that something is wrong with PiEEG? PiEEG is more affordable than products from www.openbci.com, and also more flexible.
But according to William Croft from www.openbci.com, PiEEG is an old prototype which is noisy.
So is there no real alternative to products from www.openbci.com?
If you share the interests of www.petergamma.org, who is looking since years for new and affordable alternatives to products from www.openbci.com, we think it is worth to have a deeper look, also for beginners, onto products based on InfluxDB.
And that means that we have to go to a university library like this one:
https://infozentrum.ethz.ch/en
and start reading scientific papers about this topic. Physiological multi-sensor devices surely continue to develop. But where do we find really new developments based on the TI EEG chip ADS1299?
We think it is worth to have a deeper look at products based on InfluxDB, also for beginners:

And if we start to studying those, will we ever come back to the ADS1299?
