It is a brainwave interface headset with medical-grade data acquisition for research or consumer use. It measures electrical impulses generated by mental activity, and uses proprietary algorithms to calculate the observed types of brain behavior. For consumer games and education, The MindSet makes calculated brainwave levels and interpreted mental states (currently “attention” and “meditation”) available as digital input for computers, phones, software, and devices. There are currently over a dozen games and educational applications available for download on our store. For sophisticated developers, raw unfiltered brainwave measurements are available through use of our SDK. In all cases, the data is fed to the computer via wireless Bluetooth and includes both audio and voice support for MP3 and VoIP.<br>

np_mindset is an external for either Max/MSP or Puredata to receive information from the Neurosky Mindset.</blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0.8ex; border-left-width: 1px; border-left-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-left-style: solid; padding-left: 1ex; ">
Portability of source between Max and Pd is available thanks to flext ( <a href="http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/ext/flext/">http://www.parasitaere-kapazitaeten.net/ext/flext/</a> )</blockquote><div><br><div><div>

Architecturally, one way of segmenting such an application would be to interface the C++ SDK into a Qt-based client like <a href="http://qmidictl.sourceforge.net/qmidictl-index.html">http://qmidictl.sourceforge.net/qmidictl-index.html</a> (multicasting brainwaves over the net via ipMIDI) and then use <a href="http://qmidinet.sourceforge.net/qmidinet-index.html">http://qmidinet.sourceforge.net/qmidinet-index.html</a> to hook into Jack.</div>
