They provide their eSense(tm) measurements as well as the "eegPower", which seems to give a general overview of the different brainwave levels in relation to each-other (but not much else). This actually works out really well, because you can dump the data to an org table, and then as Nick said, use babel/calc/R to dow hat you need to do with it. There is a function inside of the data-gathering package that handles that pretty nicely (albeit slowly) with calc. Of course, this is all very course grained, but it is working nicely for my current experiments! My intention is to eventually connect to the lower level serial Neurosky interface for the raw EEG wave data with emacs, and send the both the EEG data and a timestamp straight to a file. This might be a blind alley however. The idea of quantified coding sounds awesome! The question is, how does one marry up a line of code, with a particular neurological state, especially since a given line of code isn't a static entity that one can easily refer to? __________________________________ Jonathan Arkell Sr. Developer Inspired By Drum & Bass, Scheme, Kawaii p. 403.206.4377 1011 9th Ave SE, Suite 300 Calgary, AB, Canada T2G 0Y4 jonathana@criticalmass.com criticalmass.com On 5/09/12 12:30 PM, "Kyle Machulis" wrote: >Something this thread might be interested in.
