This repository contains the Artoo (http://artoo.io/) adaptor for the Neurosky Mindwave Mobile EEG (http://store.neurosky.com/products/mindwave-mobile).

Artoo is a open source framework for robotics using Ruby.

For more information abut Artoo, check out our repo at https://github.com/hybridgroup/artoo

gem install artoo-neurosky

require 'artoo'

connection :neurosky, :adaptor => :neurosky, :port => '/dev/rfcomm0'
device :neurosky, :driver => :neurosky, :interval => 0.1

def handle_eeg(sender, data)
  puts data
end

work do
  puts "Scanning..."
  on neurosky, :eeg => :handle_eeg
end

The main steps are:

• Pair your computer and the Mindwave
• Connect to the device via Artoo

First pair your computer and Mindwave. You might be prompted for a passcode, if so enter '0000'.

Once paired, use the artoo connect scan command to find out your connection info:

$ artoo connect scan

Now you are ready to connect to the Mindwave using a serial connection.

The main steps are:

• Pair your computer and the Mindwave
• Map your device to a unix port
• Use a socket to serial connection to map a TCP socket to the local unix port
• Connect to the device via Artoo

First pair your computer and Mindwave. You might be prompted for a passcode, if so enter '0000'.

Once paired, use the artoo connect scan command to find out your connection info:

$ artoo connect scan
Scanning ...
  00:06:66:4A:14:99 Mindwave

Next, you need to bind the Mindawave to the system port. In the above example, /dev/rfcomm0. The easiest way to do this is to use the artoo connect bind command:

artoo connect bind 00:06:66:4A:14:99 /dev/rfcomm0

Now you are ready to connect to the Sphero using system port.

We are currently working with the Celluloid team to add Windows support. Please check back soon!
