- | ====== ThinkGear ====== | ||
- | ThinkGear™ is the technology inside every NeuroSky product or partner product that enables the device to interface with the wearers’ brainwaves. It includes: | ||
- | |||
- | * the sensor that touches the forehead, | ||
- | * the contact and reference points located on the ear pad, and | ||
- | * the onboard chip that processes all of the data. | ||
- | |||
- | {{ :asic1.gif?121|}} | ||
- | Both the raw brainwaves and the eSense Meters (Attention and Meditation) are calculated on the ThinkGear™ chip. The calculated values are output by the ThinkGear chip, through the headset, to a PC. | ||
- | |||
- | Types of data output from ThinkGear chips: | ||
- | * **Raw sampled wave values** (128Hz or 512Hz, depending on hardware) | ||
- | * Signal **poor quality** metrics | ||
- | * **eSense Attention and Meditation** meter values | ||
- | * **EEG band power** values for delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma | ||
- | * and more... (some hardware models only) | ||
- | ====== Headsets ====== | ||
- | The ThinkGear technology (as an ASIC or module) is embedded into different types of headsets. NeuroSky currently sells the [[MindWaveMobile|MindWave Mobile]], the MindWave, and the MindSet headsets. | ||

- | ===== MindSet ===== | ||
- | {{:mindset.png?65 |MindSet headset}} | ||
- | The **MindSet** is no longer available. | ||
- | |||
- | This was our first consumer-developer released headset. It contains a **ThinkGear ASIC** chip. It streams data from the ThinkGear chip over a Bluetooth connection to any computer that can receive a Bluetooth serial stream (SPP). It also comes with standard Bluetooth A2DP audio and microphone capabilities. | ||
