in Building an EEG with a Children's Toy, a direct reply to the story

Low-end EEG kits exist.[1] Probably easier to start with that.

My favorite toy in this space was Nekomimi in 2012 - cosplay cat ears connected to an EEG sensor.[2] It sensed "resting", "active", and "surprised". I saw some girls wearing these at a convention. Someone called out the name of one of them, and her ears popped up. Only the one, not the others.

It was a good idea, but too bulky. 4 AAA batteries plus huge ears. Someone should do that again, more compactly.
