Trying this Mindwave Headset first time

Results of Today's Lab:
1.     I got the right to install software on No.39 Lab Computer, and the software on CD have been installed and run successfully.
2.     I haven't found an absolute way to control the result of my concentration. (Maybe I should try more.) So our first idea, the helicopter game, may be very hard to control.
3.     The sensitive of blinding is not satisfied; no matter I blind as usual or much more obviously, sometimes it detected, sometimes it didn't...
4.     It seems consume more power than what its specification says "one AAA battery lasts for 10hrs".
5.     The developer software downloaded from the website couldn't be installed. (Maybe because I downloaded them from Chinese-page version. (English-page version need to sign-in, fill up information and waiting for their email, but Chinese one needn't...-_-lazy...))
6.     Because the above item, I can't get the original data and still don't know how to introduce the source to MATLAB.

My plan to solve above problems:
1.     Try more, and lend a chargeable battery from my classmate...-_-lll
2.     I'll try to install those related software on my laptop this weekend; if it still failed, I'll ask the official waiter online.
3.     Only if we get the original data, maybe we can know why the blinding detection doesn't work well.
4.     Read the official pages for developers.

I'll keep update the blog when I get the solutions.

============================================
Tips for you two who didn't come today:
1.     Four weeks has run a quarter. If we determine to programme that helicopter game, it's time to find its open source and understand it now.
2.     You can also try to install the software for developers, so that we can get used to the software interface to speed up our operations on Monday.
3.     Reading background information is really hard and slow for me, so I searched them and read them in Chinese. Please record the useful sentences and their references on this blog for our report. I will do it too. For these days, we can collect some for introduction section.

That's all, maybe...haha
Have a good weekend~

  2. Ah, I found the place to adjust the sensitivity of eye blind thanks to Hamzah~ The default value is 80--- It's too big... any value lower than 30 can work well~
