Begging of 1970 making custom made Audio system, PA system, Mixing console, Bio-feedback system with LED, etc. 1983, Brain wave visualization and control mouse use LISA computer. 1991 start ship IBVA : Interactive Brain wave Visual Analyzer system for Mac. Use Max to connect brain wave to MIDI that time. since 2005 use Quartz Composer for brain wave MIDI and visual control. 2009 Jan, start ship BrainDJVJ application for iPhone. Currently working on brain wave interactive OpenCL 3D stereoscopic object in the HDRI 360 degree panorama light probe image environment., Arduino controller and multi device input based on UDP/OSC.

Intro: Open brain wave interface hardware

make high quality brain wave interface as low cost and small size is my over 20 years of dream. To do so need mass production, need work with investor to realize that way. not just only my thinking many people ask me to have low cost brain wave interface but i didn't succeeded many years. Still i sale expensive brain wave interface system. however recently we can get parts, micro controller more low cost, small size and more easy to do custom programing. So I made 3 different prototype first. then make actual low cost interface. Section 1 is how i made prototype over 20 years ago and new prototype 1, 2 and 3. including Arduino code and test code. Section 2 is circuit diagram for actual new design brain interface based on prototype 1, 2 and 3. Section 3 is small size brain interface on going project. Section 4 is example of brain wave interactive animation. This brain wave interface hardware work with Mac: IBVA V5.0.8.5 : not free. all IBVA user since 1991 can get this free upgrade. Quartz Composer IBVA plugin : free and PC user can use Brainbay with IBVA plugin for OpenEEG project. : free following is step by step instruction for this. photo is prototype 1. 1: making of open brain wave interface hardware prototype. prototype : Step 1 prototype 1: Step 2 prototype 2: Step 3 prototype 3: Step 4 code: Step 5 2: open brain wave interface hardware circuit diagram. diagram : Step 6 3: other Arduino connection : Step 7 4: brainVJ sample : Step 8

Step 1: Prototype
prototype you can skip to see this page and prototype 1, 2 and 3 to go diagram also. to make brain interface is not easy. to see brain wave need to use less than 1 micro V (1/1,000,000 V) resolution amplifier, and need to care for electrode and skin connection to forehead. all interface need to isolate from AC power supply. need to use low noise amp. make that way is not easy to make low cost, unless make mass production. however recent open hardware technology let us to make low cost by our self, it was my over 20 years of dream to make low cost and high quality brain wave interface. like to share this how i made open brain wave interface. first i made prototype that use head amp i made over 20 years ago. i start develop brain wave interface around 40 years ago with all analog electric device with LED. LED technology was open around that time. it is like miracle : silicon device can make light, but brightness was so weak that time, like 20 mA current makes 1 mcd, but I start make LED accessory, everybody surprised it. new LED which I used for prototype 2 is 20 mA current makes 25,000 mcd. many new technology happened like that way, for beginning is so little but going to so big. some people can see this beginning of changes, but some people can not see this changes. many times happened coverup of new technology too. it was my personal interest to start develop bio feedback device that included brain wave feedback. unfortunately not easy to see brain wave at that time. so i was dreaming to have more nice way to see it. since mid 1970 start use digital technology with analog device such as switched capacitance filter.

then start micro compute age. i was so existing to use this CPU technology with bio feedback system. Start use LISA and Mac computer since 1983/1984, control mouse with brain wave, show brain wave on the Window on screen. Did brain wave control MIDI since it is start. http://www.psychiclab.net/Public/1984.html we are not just only bio entity. also connected hyper space, mind-spirit world. so brain wave technology = brain microphone 's information can not tell all of human mind of course. however can see so interesting way to change brain wave that depend on our state. My case some time i worked many days no sleep, i was so surprised that my brain wave looks so many high beta frequency active and can not make it down. it was nice for me to see it for use personal brain excise. also sleep and dream brain wave is my interest. i don't do but people doing meditation, tai chi, yoga etc. also interesting way to change brain wave, to see coherence is one of my interest. We can connect brain wave to multimedia, to control, sound, MIDI, animation, LED light, DMX, connect via internet, etc. can use as one of input device. beginning was so slow to control many things limited by technology. this video shows how to play MIDI with brain wave in 1993, play by Timothy Leary. http://www.psychiclab.net/iWeb/Pod/Podcast/29E21D35-E5C5-4508-99AB-3826CEC02A4C.html Our electric technology is still so primitive like before actually technology born. we are waiting to use Memristor and TeraHertz CPU technology. but now computer speed getting better than before. so many interesting things we can do now. my system get brain wave from forehead, left and right, you can put electrode other location in case you like. some people like to connect many electrode, but i don't like to do that way. its take long time to put electrode and not easy to continue always wear that way. also some people like put electrode inside of brain : implant. currently I don't like that way. some case people need to do like to do or not. this technology maybe going to big business like cell phone. so i forces to get brain wave only from forehead, like brain wave stereo microphone. connect many electrode mean like use many microphone to recording sound. that way we can get more information of course. but not easy to setup that way always. forehead is most development part of human brain, and shows personality. other part of brain use for more like as human bio robot : same as other animal except Dolphin and cat. it is just in generally say that way. not for all animal included human. we are created by different beings/entity. one of IBVA prototype photo: Interactive Brain wave Visual Analyzer : 1988 active head AMP (Left) and AD converter and serial converter use PAL programable logic IC. 1989, I used one of IBVA prototype with friend Bill Cote ( http://bcvideo.com ) we did brain wave experience at Peru, MARKAWASHI, Machu Picchu, on airplane fling over Nazca Line, etc. few brain wave experience that time. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVAex/BillMachuPicchu.html http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVAex/BillPeru2.html photo at Machu Picchu. following images are actual product in 1991 witch use classic radio wave. one unit has one channel brain wave and use transmitter and receiver unit. Next product start ship from 2006 to currently use Bluetooth. one unit has two channel brain wave + extra two channel 0-5 V input. both brain wave interface has similar quality of brain wave head amp which i start design since 1980's. so i used two original IBVA's head amp parts from transmitter unit and Arduino BT put together to make prototype open brain wave interface unit. following is step by step instruction how I made it. all people who has original IBVA can make same way in case they like to do so. then next show re-design brain wave hardware circuit diagram that based on original IBVA design and use Arduino. everybody can use this diagram to make it. later show actual photo and all parts list for this open hardware. most difference between Arduino open brain wave interface and actual current IBVA Bluetooth product is max sampling frequency. open brain wave interface Max sampling frequency is 240 Hz, actual product is 1980 Hz. usually 240 Hz sampling frequency is ok to do many things. but open brain wave interface use Arduino, so easy to modify program to do many things like LED feedback on unit, which actual product can not to do that way. it is like dream for me, can put together old AMP unit and new Arduino interface. and now we can use with high speed Mac/PC. original IBVA start ship 1991 for Mac. 1998, IBVA won a product award at the MacWorld New York. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVA/PhotosPublic.html http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVA/PhotosMedia.html current product use Bluetooth interface which start ship from 2006. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVA/IBVA_.html about Brain wave. there is many EEG related information. you can find it from web. all information is depend on your interest also. something like : http://www.psych.westminster.edu/psybio/BN/Labs/Brainwaves.htm however not many open information for special research resolute. i'm interested in to see coherence. some of my experience of coherence data. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVAex/CoherenceEX_2.html about coherence display in IBVA 5 application. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVA/Coherence.html coherence experience was started 1972..1976 by David W.Orme-Johnson, Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation technique. This Meditation was getting popular by Beatles. Maharishi Institute Japan visiting my home in Manhattan New York beginning of 1990's ask me to incorporate there coherence function to my IBVA application. so I work together with brain wave research people in Maharishi international university in Fairfield Iowa to develop coherence function. early 1970's with there computer took one week calculation time for coherence to print out paper. now with IBVA 5 application with current computer can see coherence in realtime. 1972 was also SRI ( Stanford Research Institute ) invited URI Geller for six weeks of psychic testing by Laser physicists Dr. Harold Puthoff and Russell Targ, CA USA. they tested psychic with brain wave experiment. 1968-1972 Andrew D. Basiago join DARPA's Project Pegasus, time travel, teleportation experiment. one of system they used was brain wave interface system also. http://www.projectpegasus.net/ 1972 also first Crop Circle found in modern history at Warminster UK by Bryce Bond. http://www.cropcirclesecrets.org/crop_circles_early.html Brain wave experience in the Crop Circle with friend Colin Andrews. : 1993 .. 2002 http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVAex/BrainwaveCropCircle.html 1972, i was in Sapporo japan, organized one of first hippie outdoor concert event in Japan that used stereo system I made as PA system. i start develop brain wave monitor device. actually not easy to see brain wave that time. mid 1980 i start work as head of ASC II Laboratory for human computer interface research included brain wave biofeedback, UFO and Psychic phenomena research. it was first company did research for this kind in Japan. few years later ASC II need divided two for start Microsoft japan develop world first Windows computer. ASC II and NEC was large computer related company in Japan that time. I was so surprised when I tested

Windows Alpha version computer, programming structure was so similar as Mac. http://psychiclab.net/IBVA/ASCIILAB.html 1988 November with UFO study group friend in Sapporo Japan, we invited Kiyota to do psychic spoon vending open experience. so i try to make new IBVA prototype without sleep few days with new color Mac II, it was first color Mac just released. I was so exciting to make brain wave visualization application in color display only 256 color that time. however brain wave experience was not succeeded that time. my system didnt work correctly. http://psychiclab.net/IBVA/KiyotaPhoto.html Following is how I made open brain wave interface prototype 1,2 and 3. you can skip to see prototype 1, 2 and 3 to go diagram also.

Cut this parts from transmitter unit board. use two of them put together on circuit board. then put on it Arduino BT and Li-ion 3.7 V battery. in front put SW and 6 pin connector to connect cable and head pad. in back put battery and connector for charger. one charge runs 4 hour continue operation time. 1: connect 5 V power to two of AMP parts DC-DC converter power input. it is from Arduino 5 V output pin. 2: connect AMP parts output ( 0..5V output) to Arduino Analog input 0 and 1. 3: connect two RGB LED to Arduino Digital output pin, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11. 4: connect battery via Switch to Arduino BT power input connector. 5: need to use changer for charge Battery. can not use this device when change battery. 6: connect cable and head pad to 6 PIN input. need to make and/or buy this cable and head pad. two RGB LED light ON by command from IBVA application BS switch serial command. left and right brain for each LED, delta/theta:Green, Alpha:Blue, Beta:Red brain wave trigger LED. one LED is top, other LED is side. originally use as Arduino analogue output pin, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11 for drive LED. but to do so cannot use timer interrupt function. so i change it to use as Digital output. and serial command for control LED was use with IBVA application BS number command, but to do so speed problem happened. so i change it to simple one character command. Battery charger connector. with charger. one charge operate 4 hour continue. Cable and head pad. need to put 3 electrode to head pad. this cable has ear clip for body ground. body ground use for reduce AC power noise from outside. this photo shows connect medical electrode connection. 3 electrode to forehead and/or other part of brain, one is for body ground : like neck, etc. you can design own head had, this head had for waveUFO project design by Mariko Mori and me, 2001, 2002. waveUFO body is made in Italy same as Arduino. http://www.psychiclab.net/PsychicLub/wave_UFO_Rio_Brazil.html

Step 6: Open brain wave interface hardware circuit diagram

2: open brain wave interface hardware circuit diagram UK news paper daily telegraph 1997. this diagram is based on prototype 1, 2 and 3 and put together with Arduino BT. AMP parts diagram high cut filter Parts list : head amp : OPA2111 X 2 offset amp : TL062 X 2 filter IC : MAX 7480 X 2 R : 10 M ohm X 4 R : 100 K ohm X 16 R : 10 K ohm X 4 R : 4.7 K ohm X 2 R : 2 K ohm X 2 C : 47 F 16V X 6 ( this parts has polarity. + side goes to + power, - side goes to - power ) C : 106 X 2 ( 10 F = 10,000,000 pF) C : 104 X 6 ( 0.1 F = 100,000 pF) C : 331 X 4 ( 330 pF) C : 100 pF X 4 C : 10 pF X 2 Zener Diode : RD4.3E X 2 Zener Diode : RD5.6E X 2 Trimer : 100 K ohm X 2 Trimer : 50 K ohm X 2 DC-DC : RZC12W20 X 2 ( can use other companys DC-DC. +/- 12 V, 50 mA ) Arduino BT : X 1 Arduino Proto Shield : X 1 RGB LED : X 2 also you need to connect battery ( 2.0 V .. 5.2 V ) to Arduino BT. ( when 2.0 V : 520 mA, 2.7 V : 350 mA, 3.9 V : 220 mA, 4.5 V : 200 mA, 5 V : 180 mA ) need to make or buy cable and electrode head pad and electrode. medical electrodes this unit works with same Arduino code as prototype 1 unit. also can use Quartz Composer IBVA plugin XCODE for Mac is Open source. included sample QC file to show Raw data. Brainbay IBVA plugin for OpenEEG project PC is Open source. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVA/BrainBay.html Can use IBVA V5 application for Mac. all IBVA user since 1991 can get this free upgrade. in case you like you can buy it also. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVA/IBVAnew2.html construction Photo and test procedure : under construction. waiting to get some parts. this diagram is basically same as i used over 30 years. so it should work. in case you like you can start make same way. and/or you can wait until i finish to make this. maybe need some changes. so many times i made this amp parts different way, but head amp is same amp electric circuit design. need to set two trimer, total gain and offset for AD input of Arduino. need to set 200 micro V p-p input makes 5 V p-p to Arduino analog input. Total gain is 25,000. also 2.5 V offset to Arduino analog input. output need to set 0 to 5 V. audio amplifier and brain wave amplifier difference is source impedance and frequency response. usually audio amplifier design to use low impedance source: like 4 ohm, 8 ohm, 200 ohm, 600 ohm, 1 K ohm, 10 K ohm, 100 K ohm, this mean easy to make low noise amplifier but need wide frequency range. low frequency is 5 Hz, 10 Hz, 20 Hz high frequency is 20 K Hz, 40 KHz, 80 KHz, 200 KHz. brain wave amplifier need to design for high impedance source and low voltage and current noise, low DC drift, but less frequency range like low frequency is 0.16 Hz, 0.5 Hz, 1 Hz and high frequency is 30 Hz, 100 Hz, 300 Hz, 1000 Hz. also need to have 100 to 1000 times more gain than audio amplifier. how to test: Connect 100 K ohm impedance source oscillator is nice for noise test. put 1 to 10 micro V p-p, 1 .. 40 Hz sin wave. amplifier noise is depend on skin and electrode impedance. usually low impedance makes low noise. high impedance makes more noise. not just only amplifier, resistance also has noise. this noise is depend on temperature. low temperature makes low noise, high temperature makes more noise. this amplifier OPA2111 noise is very similar as resistance noise. only way to reduce noise is make low temperature : this is current open technology limitation. we can not make low noise than resistance noise. depend on skin and electrode conductance situation this noise will be change. my head amp design try to eliminate this skin and electrode conductance situation depend on person and other issuer. Usually 10 K ohm to 1 M ohm is skin and electrode conductance. many years ago EEG technician's one of knowledge is how to put nice way electrode to skin. mean set low impedance between electrode and skin. because that time amplifier quality was not good when input impedance is high. in generally say low impedance person is relaxed. high impedance person is more stress. This unit can see less than 1 micro V p-p brain wave. it is professional quality EEG system. digitally control filter works very nice. can set cut and/or no cut 50 Hz to 60 Hz AC power noise which come from any where in the room. 50 Hz and 60 Hz is depend on

country, only Japan has two AC power frequency. http://www.psychiclab.net/IBVA/50Hz60Hz.html Can set Aurduino program to see this AC frequency also. in case you like to see more high frequency than 50 Hz to 60 Hz AC power noise then need to careful for setup all system condition. it is not easy this setup for beginner. Prototype 1 Aurduino code set this frequency to 40 Hz, so no problem for 50 Hz to 60 Hz AC power noise. however too many noise will still get AC noise. doing experience outside is so nice to eliminate this AC noise. masahiro kahata psychiclab.net
