Starting a new chapter with Apple!

on

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve started a new chapter with Apple!

Looking back on my journey with OpenBCI, I’m filled with gratitude for the experiences that have made this adventure unforgettable. Every moment has been a whirlwind of growth and inspiration. I extend a special thank you to Conor Russomanno, Joseph Artuso, and Shirley Zhang for believing in me as the company’s first full-time engineer. You and the whole team are exceptional and I have no doubt you will achieve great things.

Joining Apple, a beacon of innovation, is a dream come true. To have the opportunity to contribute to the next era of technology alongside some of the brightest minds in Silicon Valley is humbling and exhilarating. Apple’s relentless pursuit of excellence and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible is incredibly inspiring. I’m honored and I can’t wait to dive in!

It’s hard to describe what it felt like to go on the TED stage and watch Christian fly over the audience… It was a magical and mesmerizing moment. A powerful reminder of the human ability to challenge limitations and reach beyond what we believe is possible. A testament to our motto at OpenBCI: Turning Science Fiction Into Science.

CES 2023

on

CES 2023 has come to an end
 and it was epic!
 
Amazing energy from more than 100K techies from around the world working hard on their innovations. Wearables, drones, mixed reality, autonomous vehicles, smart home devices, you name it!
 
It was inspiring to see multiple companies on the show floor who’ve previously used OpenBCI equipment, and the high level of interest in Galea. The neurotechnology and broader biosensing industries are definitely gaining a growing presence in the tech world.
 
Can’t wait for CES 2024!

I/ITSEC 2022

on

What a week at I/ITSEC! On top of the Unity awards, here are some highlights from the event:
 
đŸ’» Trying the latest products by our partners Varjo and iMotions.
đŸ‘©â€đŸ’Œ Meeting our advisor Amy Kruse and watching her use Galea.
🚁 Controlling helicopters, planes, and tanks in highly realistic VR simulators by Microsoft, Lockheed Martin, CAE, and more.
🩋Learning about the impactful work companies like Moth+Flame are doing by providing training modules that include suicide and assault interventions.
 
And, most importantly, an OpenBCI booth that got more and more packed by the day!

Meeting the BCI Guys!

on

More people are becoming aware of the potential #neurotechnology has to positively impact our lives and looking to get involved. I believe that this industry will grow exponentially and shape how we interact with our environment in ways we can’t imagine today. 

It’s vital to provide those interested in learning with resources to get started. I struggled to find them when I was a student. Harrison Canning and Colin Fausnaught—the BCI Guys—are doing an amazing job of filling this gap by providing educational materials that are not only free but also engaging and easy to follow. I always recommend their Foundations of Neurotechnology course to our new hires who come from a different industry. 

Neurotech poses exciting yet daunting challenges. Lowering the barrier of entry and generating interest is essential to attract the bright minds who can help us to solve them. We’re only scratching the surface, let’s keep digging.

P.S. Thank you Sonika Vuyyuru for gifting me the #BCIGal shirt!

OpenBCI Webinar #2

on

If you work with biosensors you know that one of the biggest challenges is knowing how to adjust them properly to get a reliable signal. To automate this for Galea, we’re developing a VR assistant that shows you how to get the headset to fit right.
