If you’ve read previous articles on this blog, you know that we have a hankering for amateur neuroscience and have been doing some EEG experiments with the OpenBCI.
At first, we used

The button has finally been pressed. After months of waiting—and saving up—my pre-order for an OpenBCI board has been placed.
The OpenBCI is an open-hardware, open-software ‘Brain Computer Interface’ capable of
