Modular PySide6 GUI for acquiring and visualizing bio-signals from different sources.
The code is compatible with Python 3.7+. To create and activate the Python environment, run the following commands:
python -m venv <ENV_NAME>
source <ENV_NAME>/bin/activate
Then, from within the virtual environment, the required packages can be installed with the following command:
pip install -r requirements.txt
To enable the communication between the GUI and a board, one must provide a Python file with the following specifications:
packetSize: integer representing the number of bytes to be read;startSeq: sequence of commands to start the board, expressed as a list of bytes;stopSeq: sequence of commands to stop the board, expressed as a list of bytes;fs: list of sampling frequencies, one for each signal to read from the board;nCh: list of numbers of channels, one for each signal to read from the board;SigsPacket: named tuple containing one field for each signal to read from the board;decodeFn: function that decodes each packet of byte read from the board into the specified signals.
Some examples of interface files are provided in the interfaces folder.
Run the script main.py, which launches the main window.
