The OpenBCI system makes sense of an electroencephalograph (EEG), signal, a
general measure of electrical activity in the brain captured via electrodes
on the scalp. The fundamental hardware component is a relatively new chip
from Texas Instruments, which takes in analog data from up to eight
electrodes and converts it to a digital signal. Russomanno and Murphy used
the chip and an Arduino board to create OpenBCI, which essentially amplifies
the brain signal and sends it via Bluetooth to a computer for processing.
