neuralDrift v2.0

neuralDrift is a collaborative multiplayer neurogame based on brain-computer interfaces.

Description

Inspired by the movie Pacific Rim, in which collaborative mind control technology allows the use of futuristic giant robots, the game lets two players – Jaeger pilots – control a robot by syncing their brain waves. The project was completed under 36 hours during WearHacks 2014, the first wearables hackathon to be held in North America.

The game consists in a LEGO© MINDSTORMS© EV3 robot, an Android device displaying the game state, and requires two EEG devices supported by MuLES.

Installation

1. Download project

You can either download the zip file of the project and extract it, or clone the git.

2. Download and install dependencies:

  • MATLAB (tested with R2013a) with the Instrument Control Toolbox
  • MuLES
    • Follow the installation instructions for configuring specific EEG devices (i.e., installing SDKs and pairing devices with Bluetooth).
  • QUT EV3 MATLAB toolkit
    • Put the folder EV3 in /neuralDrift/scripts.
    • Pair the LEGO©EV3 robot to the PC. Instructions
  • Compile Processing code/Install executable on Android device

Usage

  1. Launch the neuralDrift Android app on your Android device.
  2. Power on the EEG devices and set them on the 2 players.
  3. Open the main_neuraldrift.m script and change default parameters if needed (Android device name, player names, feature extraction parameters, MATLAB path, etc.)
  4. Make sure MATLAB's current folder is neuraldrift/scripts, then launch main_neuraldrift().
  5. Follow the training procedure and start drifting!
  6. Various commands (make sure to be focused on Figure 1 before using the commands):
    • Turn robot motors ON/OFF:
    • Restart game:
    • Escape game:
    • Print information system state:
