  • SimpleBLE - Cross-platform BLE library for Windows, Linux and MacOS/iOS
    8 projects | /r/cpp | 4 Apr 2022
    Internally, SimpleBLE is using CoreBluetooth on MacOS, WinRT on Windows and SimpleBluez/SimpleDBus (two other components that I wrote providing low-level access to DBus as well as Bluez abstractions). The library is extensively tested in terms of functionality as well as memory/thread sanity and I do feel confident about it being production ready. Tiny caveat: Most tests I run are manual, although I have plans for a proper hardware-in-the-loop CI pipeline if I get enough people interested / funding.

    About my current user base, I'd like to highlight we use SimpleBLE at my job, it has been integrated into BrainFlow, it is part of some new tools made by a large industrial automation company (whose name I cannot mention but rhymes with "Good product made by bees") and by a robot researcher in Germany.
  • Develop apps with biosensors and neurointerfaces
    2 projects | dev.to | 30 Nov 2021
    BrainFlow provides a uniform SDK to work with biosensors with a primary focus on neurointerfaces. It provides SDK for Python, Java, C#, C++, Matlab, R, Julia and Rust. Core part of BrainFlow is written in C\C++ and all bindings call methods from dynamic library. User API is uniform for all supported devices and allows you to develop device agnostic applications.
  • A real brain-computer interface mod for Skyrim VR
    1 project | /r/Games | 16 Nov 2021
    I made a mod for Skyrim VR that brings your mental focus level (as determined by a Muse 2 meditation EEG device and the processing of https://brainflow.org) into Skyrim and scales your ingame magic power by your actual mental power. So you now actually need to learn to channel your inner strength if you want to be a successful mage! This is Real Virtual Magic!

    I can get the complete EEG reading of four channels plus the gyro sensors and in the future also the heart rate. What I do with it is a different question :D I process the data myself, locally, using the brainflow.org library. So I do create a non-binary value at the moment
  • Truly next level s**t here
    1 project | /r/skyrimmods | 15 Nov 2021
    Sure! I use brainflow.org to collect the data from the muse and at the moment I just do a super simple spectral analysis and use the average alpha/theta ratio to determine brain power. This will definitely not stay. I am already experimenting with different ratios and I will probably implement a classifier that allows a more sophisticated classification later down the road. I will also augment it with the gyro sensor and the heart rate monitor that is integrated in the Muse. Ultimately, I will make it compatible with the OpenBCI Galea device.
