Feedback-Simulator

Developed by Dominik I. Braun.

What is it?

This simulator is based on Python/PyQT and uses UDP to stream the feedback recorded from a Brain-Computer-Interface during an experiment.

Run the application

1. Download the repository
2. Go to ..\bin\dist\
3. Run the feedback_simulator.exe

Add/remove receiving clients

Click on the "+" or "-" buttons to add or remove clients from the receiving list. When adding a new client, make sure that you enter a valid integer value in the input field.

Start/Stop stream

Click on "Start Stream" to start streaming the data and on "Stop Streaming" to stop it.

Format of the data

The application is written to stream a string with 9 comma separated values in the shape of an array. The values represent:

• value 0: thumb flexion
• value 1: thumb abduction
• value 2: index flexion
• value 3: middle flexion
• value 4: ring flexion
• value 5: pinky flexion
• value 6: wrist flexion/extension # Not working atm
• value 7: Empty
• value 8: wrist supination/pronation # Not working atm

Example String: "[value 0, value 1, value 2, value 3, value 4, value 5, value 6, value 7, value 8]". The string is encoded in utf-8 bytes.

Let it stream to our Virtual Hand Interface

1. Download the Virtual Hand Interface from https://github.com/NsquaredLab/Virtual-Hand-Interface
2. Follow the instructions and connect the Virtual Hand Interface
3. Add the port of the Virtual Hand Interface to the feedback simulator
4. Start the stream!
