PiEEG / original shield
Build the lab.Keep it open.
PiEEG turns Raspberry Pi into an eight-channel biosignal instrument—placing acquisition, computation, and application code inside one inspectable stack.

01 / Instrument thesis
The signal should never disappear inside the tool.
PiEEG keeps each layer available to inspect: electrode contact, conversion settings, SPI transfer, Python processing, and the application built on top.
02 / Open bench
One physical stack.
Four visible layers.
The bench is not a feature list. It is the actual route a weak biological potential follows before it becomes code.

CONTACT
Acquire the potential
Eight differential inputs accept wet or dry electrodes for EEG, EMG, or ECG experiments.IN / 08 - 02
CONVERT
Resolve the signal
Twenty-four-bit conversion, programmable gain, and impedance measurement keep acquisition parameters visible.ADC / 24 - 03
COMPUTE
Process at the source
SPI carries data directly into Raspberry Pi, where recording, filtering, and analysis can begin.SPI / PI - 04
BUILD
Make the signal useful
The open Python SDK and PiEEG Server provide routes into visualizations and real-time applications.PY / WS
CONNECTION MAP / OFFICIAL PINOUT03 / Physical interface
A shield is a compact contract.
PiEEG connects acquisition directly to Raspberry Pi over SPI while leaving three GPIO pins available. The relationship between board and computer stays physical, legible, and programmable.

05 / Build path
Open the signal.
Then make it yours.
PiEEG is not a medical device. When electrodes are connected, the complete setup must be battery-powered and isolated from mains. Read the safety statement.
