In the SpikeOnChip project we created a system for the acquisition of neural activity signals. The complete system includes an embedded platform in the form of a microZed board connected to an "Intan" circuit responsible for data acquisition. The system is connected to a PC via a network connection and has a graphical application for the visualization and the control of the experiment. The SpikeOnChipV2 project aims to add new features to the existing platform to further support HEPIA biologists’ experiments.
