As the final circuit has two main parts in the signal acquisition all the signal processing has been done. The signal translation part only receives the signal and perform any task or to control any real-world application.
01: Signal Acquisition:
The signal acquisition part starts with the signal picking from electrodes. We are using gold plated dry electrodes that picks the signal from brain from over the scalp. After electrodes the signal goes to the instrumentation amplifier that take the difference and rejects common mode and makes the signal readable by the circuit.
After instrumentation AD620 the signal goes to the 60 Hz notch filter for removing line noise coming at 60 Hz. After Notch there comes the second order low pass filter to remove extra frequencies. After 31 Hz low pass there comes the final amplification part in this part we amplify the signal and sets the final gain.
After final amplification there is a clamper circuit for Arduino board to ensure that the output will be in the range of 5 volts. Then the last part after the circuit the output goes to the analog of the Arduino board that converts it into digital and sends to the wireless transmitter.
02: Signal Translation:
In signal translation part we receive the low noise low powered signal from transmitter and sends it to perform or control any application.
