BCIMontreal - Community

edited December 2014 in Opportunities

Hi guys,

Did you know that there is a growing community in Montreal about BCIs ?

They will host a Hackathon in 2015 on BCI in Montreal ! Stay tuned.


Some of their members have created NeuralDrift, the Pacific Rim game ! 2 players have to sync their brain activity in order to control a robot. Like in the movie the 2 players have to initiate a Neural Handshake (calibration) prior to play. Multiplayer & Multiplatform, supporting Neurosky's Mindwave, Emotiv's EPOC, InteraXon's Muse, NeuroElectrics' Enobio. A project they did during a Hackathon on wearables in Montreal (WearHacks).

  • Very Cool.

    I live in Vermont, so not terribly far from Montreal.  I've signed up to their Meetup.  Thanks for sharing!

  • Hi Chip,

    I'd definitely like to meet you and discuss BCI. From what I've seen on your blog over the past months (huge fan, btw ;)) we have some common interests.

    With BCIMontreal we are trying to build a community (physically in Montreal and remotely on the Web) from researchers to kids, from science to games, in order to promote and exploit brain-computer interfaces. We are currently building a solid team to push this organisation forward with different events and activities. Meetups and Hackathons are just 2 examples.

    Thanks for joining us, we'll be in touch !

    -Yannick.
