Closes #317


Description

This PR updates the Third-Party Hardware landing page and deprecates the MyoWare v2.0 and ThinkPulse guides, since both products have been discontinued.

Closes #333

##Changes Made

  • Updated the landing page: Removed the MyoWare and ThinkPulse Active Electrodes sections from ThirdPartyLanding.md, added the missing cEEGrid Kit section, and added purchase links for EmotiBit and the Pulse Sensor.
  • Deprecated the MyoWare v2.0 Cyton guide: Moved MyoWare_Cyton_Tutorial.md into Deprecated/ and added a discontinued-product notice.
  • Deprecated the ThinkPulse guide: Moved ThinkPulse_Getting_Started.md into Deprecated/ and added a discontinued-product notice.
  • Updated the deprecated MyoWare v1.0 doc: Fixed its note, which used to point people to the (now also deprecated) MyoWare v2.0 tutorial.
  • Updated navigation: Added both newly-deprecated guides to the Deprecated docs index and moved their sidebar entries from Third-Party Hardware to Deprecated Documents.

Remove the MyoWare and ThinkPulse Active Electrodes sections (both
discontinued), add the missing cEEGrid Kit section, and add purchase
links for EmotiBit and the Pulse Sensor.

  • “Spikey” is misspelled; use “spiky.”
Designed specifically to penetrate through thick hair without the need for conductive gels or pastes, these dry comb electrodes are ideal for fast-setup EEG applications. Their 5mm prongs accommodate longer hair while maintaining good signal quality, and end in blunt tips engineered for long-term comfort and wearability. They are designed to easily replace the pre-installed spikey electrodes in [OpenBCI Ultracortex](https://shop.openbci.com/products/ultracortex-mark-iv) headsets.

  • The “either … or” list is missing “in” before “a kit of 5,” making the sentence grammatically incomplete. Rephrase the list so all three purchase options are parallel.
Designed to offer flexibility for different areas of the scalp, these silver-silver chloride (Ag-AgCl) plated electrodes are available either on their own, a [kit of 5](https://shop.openbci.com/products/eeg-snap-electrodes) letting you choose between a comb or a flat configuration, or as part of the OpenBCI [EEG Headband Kit](https://shop.openbci.com/products/openbci-eeg-headband-kit?_pos=7&_fid=851bedfe7&_ss=c), which includes 8 comb and 4 flat electrodes along with the snap cables, a velcro strap, and a board mounting clip. Their plating ensures good signal transduction, making them a reliable choice for modular or headband-based EEG setups. The comb variant is recommended for hair-covered areas, while the flat option is ideal for bare skin or forehead placements.

  • “An OpenBCI Snap Cables” has mismatched number and article. Use the singular product name to match the referenced cable.
**Usage:** To connect them to your OpenBCI board, snap them into an [OpenBCI Snap Cables](https://shop.openbci.com/products/snap-electrode-cables-emg-ecg-eeg) or a standard third-party snap cable. These electrodes are usually held in place with a velcro strap, like the one included in the OpenBCI EEG Headband Kit.
