Connecting the Headset

Getting Started

  •   Choosing the correct headset

    • Before you begin to control your mouse with your headset be aware that there are certain requirements.

      • The headset must be an open-source product, in order to work with the software. A headset from Emotiv would not work due to the pay wall constraints.

      • The recommended headsets to use are found on the openBCI (https://shop.openbci.com/collections/frontpage) website in which this project was tested using such devices.

  • Getting Connected

    • Follow your EEG board manufacturers instructions for the physical hardware setup

    • Upon opening the software, you will see options on the left side of the screen.

      •  The button labeled “connect headset” will allow you to connect and use the cursor.
