Week 9 - EEG room

Testing

We tried multiple apps (the Muse app on the phone, Mind Monitor is not free, uvicmuse, labrecorder) but the most promising one was this article — Petal Metrics (https://betterprogramming.pub/viewing-your-brain-activity-with-the-muse-headband-b03dde069ae4).

We found this wonderful code from Nima’s blog, which uses Jason Snell’s EEG code: https://nphyscomp.netlify.app/11

Our p5 sketch: https://editor.p5js.org/iguannalin/sketches/geAQEQLUO

Took us hours to figure out how to send data serially from p5 to arduino, but the main takeaway is to absolutely make sure that the Serial monitor in the Arduino IDE is turned off when sending data from the p5 sketch.

Notes from Jason Snell

• the DTABG (delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma) channels are most informative
• if ALL channels are high, then stressed
• if ALL channels are low, then clear mind
• if Alpha channel is high, then sitting still/meditating
• if Alpha and Theta channels are higher than the others (but Theta is still lower than Alpha), then dreaming
• Delta channel is the primary channel for detecting EMG (forebrain muscle movement)

Notes from Dave Stein

• no touchdesigner (overkill)
