NeuroPy-MindBand

Original code cloned from https://github.com/dweidai/NeuroPy-Python3.0 and then adapted to work with Sichiray Mindband headset. The library itself was written originally by Sahil Singh in Python 2.x (https://pypi.org/project/NeuroPy/) to connect and interact with Neurosky's MindWave EEG headset.

Sichiray's MindBand uses the chipset from the same vendor, so it's almost fully compatible with NeuroSky-specific code.

Installation:

1. Download the source distribution (zip file) from dist directory
2. unzip and navigate to the folder containing setup.py and other files
3. run the following command: python setup.py install

Usage:

1. Importing the module: from NeuroPy import NeuroPy
2. Initialising: object1=NeuroPy("COM6",57600) for Windows, or object1=NeuroPy("/dev/rfcomm0",57600) for Linux
3. After initialising , the callbacks must be set using the "start" method, e.g. object1.start()
4. Similarly stop method can be called to stop fetching the data, e.g. object1.stop()

The data from the device can be obtained using either of the following methods or bot of them together:

• Obtaining value: variable1=object1.attention # to get value of attention
• Setting callback:a call back can be associated with any variable below, so that a function is called when the variable is updated. Syntax: setCallBack("variable",callback_function) E.g., to set a callback for attention data the syntax is setCallBack("attention",callback_function)

Supported variables: attention, meditation, rawValue, delta, theta, lowAlpha, highAlpha, lowBeta, highBeta, lowGamma, midGamma, poorSignal and blinkStrength
