MintNeuro designs purpose-built integrated circuits for the next generation of neural interfaces. This live demonstration presents EXPLORE, a plug-and-play platform that hosts the MintCore family of neural recording and stimulation chips behind a common motherboard, firmware and graphical interface, turning chip bring-up from a lengthy engineering effort into minutes of hands-on interaction. Visitors record multi-channel neural-like signals with the MN100 sensing IC, deliver monopolar and bipolar stimulation with the MN200 stimulation IC, and adjust acquisition and stimulation parameters live through the GUI, measure the power drawn on each supply rail, and observe the stimulation waveform on a portable oscilloscope. The same platform also supports benchtop characterisation and pre-clinical studies, and already underpins national neurotechnology programmes.
