Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity, Banff, Canada

08:30-08:40 Introduction and Welcome

08:40-09:00 Introducing the new Unicorn BCI Core-8
Christoph Guger introduces the Unicorn BCI Core-8, a versatile 8-channel wireless EEG device designed for seamless integration across humans and animals for various BCI and neuroscience applications. With magnetic attachment and multiple electrode options, this device adapts to diverse experimental needs.

09:00-09:30 Introducing g.Pype: Python for Neuroscience
Johannes Grünwald presents g.Pype, g.tec’s Python SDK for the Unicorn BCI Core-8. g.Pype offers a node-based real-time signal processing backend and a responsive visualization frontend, streamlining the development of BCI and neuroscience applications. The software package is cross-platform (Windows/macOS) and ideal for both beginners and experienced researchers.

09:30-10:15 g.Pype Hands-on (Part 1)
In this interactive session, attendees will explore g.Pype’s code examples and learn how to quickly implement realtime signal processing pipelines and data visualization frontends using the Unicorn BCI Core-8.

10:15-10:30 Coffee Break

10:30-11:30 g.Pype Hands-on (Part 2)
Building on insights from the previous session, attendees will design and implement custom g.Pype applications, with guidance from g.tec experts.

11:30-12:00 Best of recoveriX Research
Christoph Guger presents the latest research with g.tec’s neurorehabilitation platform recoveriX, and how its treatments, initially designed for stroke patients, are now expanding to conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease and Multiple Sclerosis.

12:00-12:30 Best of g.Pangolin Research
Micah Ching showcases the latest research using g.tec’s ultra-high-resolution EEG system, g.Pangolin, revealing breakthroughs in non-invasive brain signal analysis.

12:30-12:45 Q&A

12:45-13:45 Lunch Break

13:45-14:15 Using OSCAR LIVE to improve BCI performance
Johannes Grünwald presents recent performance studies with OSCAR LIVE, g.tec’s novel real-time artifact removal module. OSCAR enhances BCI performance by efficiently removing artifacts without compromising signal integrity.

14:15-14:45 OSCAR LIVE – Demo Session
Attendees will record EEG with OSCAR, experiencing real-time artifact removal and BCI performance improvement.

14:45-15:00 Q&A, End of Event
