# 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](https://github.com/LazaUK/NeuroPy-MindBand/archive/master.zip)
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
## Examples:
* Sahil's example can be found in [sahil_demo.py](https://github.com/LazaUK/NeuroPy-MindBand/blob/master/Examples/lihas_demo.py) file
* My example can be found in [laziz_demo.py](https://github.com/LazaUK/NeuroPy-MindBand/blob/master/Examples/laziz_demo.py) file
