Explainer videos

Make a short, accurate video about how EEG amplifiers work, what alpha waves are, or how to read a spectrum — on your own channel.

A video you own and publish.

You own what you build. Publish it under your own GitHub account with your name and chosen open-source licence.

Why It Matters for Open Neurotech

Clear, honest visual explainers demystify biopotential instrumentation—showing how differential amplifiers, driven right leg (DRL) circuits, and Fourier transforms actually work in practice.

Starting Points & Technical Notes

These are open-ended suggestions, not specifications or assigned tasks. Change the scope, combine ideas, or take a completely different approach:

  • Focus on a single concrete question (e.g. 'Why does blinking create a huge spike in frontal EEG?' or 'How does a 24-bit delta-sigma ADC measure microvolts?').
  • Show real live waveforms and spectra alongside diagrams.
  • Share your video link on Discord so the community can watch and learn from it.

Independent Open-Source Work

PiEEG Ltd does not take on volunteers, interns or unpaid workers. Any project you start is your own independent activity under your own repository and responsibility. Read the full ground rules →

Safety First

PiEEG devices are not medical devices. Use battery power only when electrodes are on a person, and never connect to mains power during recording. Liability & safety →
