Who We Are

Founded in 2024, SynapseX is a Registered Student Organization at Georgia Tech. Our members work in interdisciplinary teams, research, signal processing, device engineering, and software development, to deliver working BCI prototypes.

Our Mission

SynapseX exists to push the boundaries of neurotechnology while creating a pipeline for student learning and discovery. We aim to train the next generation of innovators by tackling projects that merge brain science with advanced computing.

Our Process

From neural signals to binary code, our interdisciplinary approach ensures that every project benefits from diverse perspectives and expertise.

Our Project Roadmap

EEG Cursor Control Prototype

Fall 2025

We are developing a baseline motor imagery (MI) + SSVEP cursor control demo using the OpenBCI Cyton (8-channel) and Ultracortex Mark IV. The goal is to achieve >70% selection accuracy and sub-2s response latency.

16-Channel Upgrade & Benchmarking

October 2025

We will add the Daisy module, expanding to 16-channel coverage. This enables richer signal processing, improved motor imagery classification, and higher-precision control tasks (e.g., pixel-level cursor accuracy).

Assistive Typing Prototype

Spring 2026

We aim to adapt cursor control into a typing interface for accessibility applications. The project will combine EEG signal classification, real-time feedback, and a user-friendly React dashboard.

Multimodal BCI Systems

Future

Beyond cursor control, SynapseX plans to explore hybrid EEG paradigms, brain-to-text interfaces, neuro-adaptive computing frameworks, and enable the think and let the computer do everything for you concept.
