Third-Party Hardware

This directory contains documents to explain the integration between OpenBCI and compatible third-party hardware.

EmotiBit

EmotiBit

Designed by our good friend Sean Montgomery and his team, EmotiBit can stream 16+ signals from the body (EDA, 3-wavelength PPG, high-res body temperature, humidity and a 9-axis IMU). We think it's the perfect complement to add emotional, physiological and movement data to your EEG recordings!

EmotiBit is a wearable sensor module for capturing high-quality emotional, physiological, and movement data. Easy-to-use and scientifically-validated sensing lets you enjoy wireless data streaming to any platform or direct data recording to the built-in SD card. Customize the Arduino-compatible hardware and fully open-source software to meet any project needs!

Tutorial Coming Soon!

MyoWare

myoware

The MyoWare muscle sensor can be integrated with both the OpenBCI Cyton and Ganglion. To find out how, check out these tutorials:

  • Cyton + MyoWare
  • Ganglion + MyoWare

Pulse Sensor

pulse sensor

The Pulse Sensor is one of the third-party add-ons offered in our store.

It can be connected to the Ganglion, Cyton, or any Arduino board to easily obtain your heart rate using photoplethysmogram (PPG).

Wifi Shield

wifi shield The Wifi Shield is an add-on module that allows you to connect an OpenBCI Board to the GUI and send data over Wifi rather than Radio/BLE. To learn more about it, see these documents:

  • Wifi Shield
  • OpenBCI Wifi Server
  • OpenBCI Wifi SDK
  • Wifi Programming Tutorial
