BCI (brain-computer interface) is a technology for sending and receiving signals between the brain and external devices. EEG is a method of recording an electrical map of electrical activity on the scalp that has been shown to be representative of macroscopic activity beneath the surface layers of the brain. The availability and reliability of EEG signals make it the most commonly used method for brain-computer interfaces. In the current market, the signal acquisition of EEG equipment is generally composed of multiple electrodes, which is bulky and complex in design and cannot meet the portability. Therefore, this project’s goal is to design a portable EEG device that can be carried out and used easily. This paper presents the research and development process of an EEG portable device for the public to use to detect and improve users’ sleep with easy setup and guidance. It is designed to be a single-channel EEG device that can record neural activity in real time and transfer the data package to a smartphone through Bluetooth connections. The neural activity data can be later analyzed for users with the bundled apps.
