EEG-based DIY Brain-Machine Interfaces (non-invasive) (mobile/portable/wireless) + 3D Augmented/Virtual Reality System
xxxxxxxxx
#1
The idea is that we will be able to record EEG-like signals to then be used as input for artificial machines, for applications in:
--- Neuroscience Research
--- Clinical (eg. motor and cognitive rehabilitation post-stroke; mindset neurofeedback)
--- Clinical/non-clinical (eg. robotic/bionic enhancements - artificial limbs, internet-based augmented reality glasses, etc)
--- Entertainment (virtual reality 3D gaming - control of objects using thoughts)
--- Education
I am currently looking into how to use open-source modules on the following external platforms by private companies and publicly-funded organizations:
--- OpenBCI http://openbci.com/index.php/forum/#/profile/2487/Harry_M
--- OpenVibe http://openvibe.inria.fr/contribute/
--- Emotiv https://www.emotiv.com/developer/
--- NeuroSky http://developer.neurosky.com/
--- InterAxon's Muse http://www.choosemuse.com/developer/
Since circa. 2012, there has been vast amounts of studies published on the effectiveness of these devices, in entertainment/games, lifestyle apps, education, scientific research, and medical clinical applications. see at https://scholar.google.co.uk/ .
One may also use machine Learning is used to encode and decode each step.
#2
Using tDCS/tACS and TMS technology, nerve stimulation, for applications in:
--- BMI like above, except with sensory input (eg. touch)

Working on my home-based DIY BMI systems, by integrating existing hardware, software and data.
Images below:
--- My own gathered equipment, which can be combined with my Arduino systems.
--- Using MS Windows 3D-Builder, CAD-Works, and Blender with Python API, to create 3D-printable models of EEG hardware; as well as for designing functionally efficient structural models.
--- BrainstormEEG software for data analysis (https://neuroimage.usc.edu/brainstorm/Installation) which uses MatLab (https://uk.mathworks.com/products/compiler/matlab-runtime.html) and a lot of the principles from Statistical Parametric Mapping (Friston et al 1995-2018, https://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/). Indeed Matlab and SPM can also be used for EEG processing.
My aim to do help pioneer DIY EEG devices for a variety of applications.

#### External Projects by Others ####
--- Augmented Virtual Reality (4D, 360deg) (see page ‘C-Cogn-S’)
--- 3D simulation modelling in in Electronics, Robotics, and Sensorimotor Integration, Neural Engineering, BioMaterials.
--- 3D CAD models for 3D printing Bionics/BioProsthetics
--- BMI OpenVibe, Brain to Brain communication via BrainWave decoding.
--- Models in Materials Eng, Immunology and Tissue Engineering.
--- OpenCIE
Some other information:
Biological Tissue Engineering / BioMaterials
--- Growing of biological organs (in labs), to regenerate living humans parts. But with functional parts that can be functionally integrated. Also: materials science of self-organizing nano-systems.
Neuro-Engineering and Cybernetics/Robotics
--- Neuro-robotics - humanoid robots with human-level sensorimotor abilities and perception, which can also self-modify

Issues to deal with:
--- Higher computational processing power (hardware and software engineering). (might take another 5-10 years, will be done with time)
--- A near-completed field of Neuroscience to be able to integrate artificial components (implanted chips, bio-friendly wires) with the biological
mammalian nervous system. (might take another 20-30+ years; much more complicated to solve, must be intensive invested collaborative effort)
Already, these can be implemented, to some extent at a basic level. The more complicated the wiring, the more time it will take to get there.
One major problem beside potential biological infections: computer viruses affecting privacy and cybersecurity --- as hackers will soon be able to hack biodevices and take control of parts of peoples' nervous systems which are hardwired to computer devices.
3D-Tech: 3D-Modelling --- Virtual Reality --- 3D-Printing
I am also exploring the use of 3D printing:
Applying DML:
Printing 3D models of teeth (e.g. in dentistry - take 3D scans of many peoples' teeth and then pool and generating an 'average' for occlusion model - prostho-orthodontics.), or eye parts, skin grafts, hair, arms, legs, with biological tissue --- also other parts of biomedical engineering and bio-prosthetics and bionics.
This will hopefully be ubiquitous in-home DIY, in about 10 years time --- there is just a need to get the cost down dramatically.
I will soon try to set up a public repository for these types of files - subject to approval from government organisations which regulate these. On the nanoscale, printing artificial neural networks, either molecular computer, biological neural networks, or silicon chips for standard in silico computations.

I am currently working on ways to use a web-browser-extension app, using DML, on it --- to integrate it with other sources to label-link each macroscopic sub-structure with the IEEE data-sets.
