Mindball EEG game

You win by producing alpha waves. Unfortunately, a Mindball set is a little expensive. Perhaps OpenEEG is the way to go? Here’s another build-your-own-EEG guide. Google also finds various people’s experiences trying to build their own EEGs according to these guides. Are there any other build-your-own EEG guides out there? Post a comment and let us know.

Also, I hope that all the homemade EEG folks know about OpenStim, and vice versa.

Mindball was posted on BoingBoing way back in 2004 so it isn’t new but I hadn’t seen the video yet so maybe you haven’t either. Apparently London’s Science Museum had a tournament too. A Mindball table costs around ~$14,000-$20,000!

(there are other random mindball videos but you get the idea)

    [...] OpenViBE is an open source software environment “enclosing novel and efficient techniques for Brain-Computer Interfaces, Neurofeedback and Virtual Reality”. I haven’t downloaded and run it, but it looks like it takes EEG data and renders a 3D image of activity in your brain so that you can use this for neurofeedback. Could be fun in conjunction with the build-your-own-EEG projects that we mentioned recently here. [...]
