The non-profit IBEGROUP (Internet Biomedical Engineering Group)
is developing an IBM PC compatible 128 channel biomedical data
acquisition system to facilitate EEG/ERP brain research at
universities and hospitals. 
 
Launched on January 4, 1995, the group's membership has grown to
about 60 professionals from 15 countries. Currently we are
creating R&D teams and are looking for additional expertise in
the following areas:
 
.Analog design      .Mixed analog/digital VLSI development
.Digital/MC design  .High speed fiber optic serial communication
.RF Telemetry       .IBM PC hardware/software interfacing
.Power supply       .Prototyping sites (universities/hospitals)
.EEG/ERP (Researchers who help us define desirable DAS features)
 
Your participation can range from email consultation to active
R&D work and/or the development of a complete system for use at
your institution. Project communications are conducted on several
listserv mailing lists.
 
If researchers at your institution use EEG/ERP equipment they may
be interested in supporting R&D with the object of acquiring one
or more systems. We aim to develop an low cost edge-of-technology
system, with many advanced features not found in any of today's
commercial systems.
 
To join this project and/or learn more about it complete the
