Ildar Rakhmatulin* - Ph.D. Electronic Researcher Sebastian Völkl - Brain-Computer-Interface Developer Abstract This paper presents Open-source software and a developed shield board for the Raspberry Pi family of single-board computers that can be used to read EEG signals. We have described the mechanism for reading EEG signals and decomposing them into a Fourier series and provided examples of controlling LEDs and a toy robot by blinking. Finally, we discussed the prospects of the brain-computer interface for the near future and considered various methods for controlling external mechanical objects using real-time EEG signals.

Now, neuroscience in non-invasive EEG measurement is only getting there. Still, each step brings us closer to that goal and inspires a new generation of scientists and engineers to contribute to this field of science.
