Elevator Pitch
What is the ultimate hack of our lives? What is the one thing that we strive to learn the most about? What is the thing that will truly unlock our potentials? What if you could log your brain to the developer console, typing with your brain signals?

What is the ultimate hack of our lives? What is the one thing that we strive to learn the most about? What is the thing that will truly unlock our potentials? What if you could log your brain to the developer console, typing with your brain signals?
This talk is a demonstration of an open-source Brain-Computer Interface that is completely developed with JavaScript, from the ground up, using neural networks and signal processing. Armagan hits the stage with a wireless EEG headset, shows how to read signals from the brain in JavaScript using native C++ Node.js modules over USB, and the implementation in Electron, Node.js and Vue.js.
Notes
I hold a masters degree in electronics, and this talk is a demonstration of my former academic publications with one big difference — now everything is implemented in JavaScript and is available to the web platform.
This talk is a demonstration of a BCI — with live examples streaming brain signals on the screen. I start with a background story of how this came to fruition, the challenges and development steps until the final project. I then talk about how our brains work and how this experiment takes benefit of a special signal in the brain. Finally, I show some code and a demo where I type the word “HELLO” by just looking at the screen.
