Un casque, des capteurs et un smartphone pour diagnostiquer les maladies neurologiques ! Parce qu'il est long et fastidieux de diagnostiquer des maladies cérébrales telles que les commotions, une startup lance le "MindReader", un casque qui permet de connaître l'activité du cerveau en temps réel. Pour détecter une commotion cérébrale, les outils classiques se révèlent parfois contraignants et combinent une multitude de tests longs à réaliser tels que l'IRM (imagerie par résonance magnétique), des tests de la mémoire ou de concentration. Parfois, le temps fait défaut aux spécialistes de la santé. Des tests neurologiques réalisés dans des conditions réelles Baptisé "MindReader", ce casque est muni de capteurs qui enregistrent l'activité du cerveau. Un système qui a ses limites Le "MindReader" peut aussi être utile à l'industrie pharmaceutique en aidant les professionnels à surveiller le système nerveux du patient et à évaluer le meilleur traitement pour ce dernier.
Brainstorms Your Mind Creates: Binaural Beats: An Infographic Guide to Brainwave Entrainment Imagine if you could get into a deep state of focused consciousness any time you want.What if I told you that this is possible? Here's your answer: get yourself some stereo headphones and listen to Binaural Beats. Binaural beats and brainwave entrainment are amazingly powerful tools for altering your state of mind.This is seriously useful whether you want to reach a deep meditative state of mind, achieve peak concentration whilst studying or immerse yourself in vivid creative visualization. Binaural beats can also help you raise your vibrational frequency. So, what are binaural beats? Binaural beats are one of the more popular types of brainwave entrainment. Here's an example of how binaural beats work: Let's say you have a base frequency of 400 Hz playing in stereo. Here's an infographic to please your eyes: What do binaural beats sound like? Here is a sample of a pure Alpha wave: This is an example of what a pure Alpha wave of 12 Hz sounds like at 5228 Hz. Frequently asked questions
Emotiv Epoc PrevNext www.arts-numeriques.info Multimedias – Interactivity – Science – Art Fin 2010, j’ai reçu une subvention de conception de la Communauté française de Belgique pour mon projet Anathèse, une performance/installation interactive utilisant un casque neuronal Emotiv EPOC. Cela faisait 5 ans que je suivais le projet de cet hardware, j’avais fait quelques tests rapides à plusieurs reprises, mais je n’avais encore jamais eu l’occasion de le tester réellement. Après avoir reçu le casque, j’ai pris contact avec Axel Cleeremans du Consciousness, Cognition & Computation Group de l’Université Libre de Bruxelles et ai débuté une série de tests avec le Numediart Institute for New Media Art Technology de l’Université de Mons. Outre ces premiers tests sur l’hard/software, nous avons travaillé à l’élaboration d’algorithmes qui me permettraient d’utiliser certains “états émotionnels” pour piloter mon installation. Présentation rapide au travers de deux vidéos. Conférence TED de juillet 2010 Top
Des chercheurs allemands conduisent une voiture par la pensée Ils n’ont pas encore atteint le niveau du professeur Xavier, mais les chercheurs d’AutoNOMOS Labs en Allemagne ont développé un système qui conduit un véhicule en lisant les ondes cérébrales d’une personne. Voici donc à quoi ressemblera notre futur. Les chercheurs avaient précédemment construit des voitures qui pouvaient être contrôlées depuis un iPhone. Le système est encore loin d’aller sur une vraie route, comme le montre la vidéo. Quelles sont les applications ? First trial with EPOC headset device. « BH Digital Media Production// I was very excited to test the EPOC headset and to see what it is capable of. Firstly, I took it out of the box and read through the manual. Before I could start the headset had to be charged and sensors prepared by hydrating them in a special saline solution. I charged the headset with a special usb cable provided. The sensors came packed in a plastic case which is suitable for soaking. After preparing the headset I have to fit it correctly on someone’s head. In order to establish the connection between the headset and the computer I used a supplied USB Transceiver Dongle and placed it into one of the USB slots. In this image I can see that all sensors apart from one are green. I noticed that EPOC must be in field of USB dongle. To test this head device i used two software tools: 1. Here is a small video preview of Mind Your OSC software responding to the headset in use: Here is a video showing how actual facial expressions are being translated onto a 3D model.

Brain–computer interface Direct communication pathway between an enhanced or wired brain and an external device A brain–computer interface (BCI), sometimes called a brain–machine interface (BMI), is a direct communication link between the brain's electrical activity and an external device, most commonly a computer or robotic limb. BCIs are often directed at researching, mapping, assisting, augmenting, or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions.[1] They are often conceptualized as a human–machine interface that skips the intermediary of moving body parts (hands...), although they also raise the possibility of erasing the distinction between brain and machine. Research on BCIs began in the 1970s by Jacques Vidal at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) under a grant from the National Science Foundation, followed by a contract from the Defence Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA).[3][4] Vidal's 1973 paper introduced the expression brain–computer interface into scientific literature.
Jitter Video Player Hi I’m a willing-to-learn jitter newbie. I’m am building an app that is going to be the digital version of a vinyl record. …And I’m working on a tight deadline, so sorry for asking stuff I probably eventually could work out on my own… There is produced video material for the entire length of the album, and the app should therefore function as a movie player with a few extra functionalities (full screen view (of the app, not just the video), CD player-like UI, tracklist from which you can choose to listen to a song + links to artist and label sites). The video material exists both as a full length .mov clip and as videos for the individual songs but in order to lessen the amount of data I’d like to use either the full length clip or the individual clips, not both. There’ll be both a pc and a mac version, so no mac-only objects or similar should be used. – Is it possible to assign time-codes to the clip and use connect them to the UI. – Umenu for the tracklist?
