A Customizable and Expandable Electroencephalography (EEG) Data Collection System

Abstract

Electroencephalography (EEG), measuring the brains electrical activity, has been used in many areas ranging from medical use to gaming and military applications. Devices used for EEG monitoring must have high accuracy and consistency to provide safe and reliable measurement of EEG for the specific application. This demands a device that can be customized or modified to how the data are collected and used to meet the requirement of that specific application. However, commercially available devices have been found to be limited in their customizability. This report presents the design, fabrication, and evaluation of an EEG test-bed that provides customizability and expandability. This EEG system is demonstrated to support high-bandwidth data sampling, real-time parameter updates, and wireless transmission.
