To nd new and exciting ways to unlock the full potential of you MindBand, visit the NeuroSky Store
for additional software and applications:
MindSet Development Tools (MDT)
e NeuroSky MindSet Development Tools (MDT) is available for free from the NeuroSky Store,
and provides all the tools and resources necessary to create and publish games and applications ca-
pable of taking advantage of the exciting new Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology of Neu-
roSky’s MindSet headset. e MDT includes drivers, sample code, and documentation describing
how to develop applications for several software platforms, including PC, Symbian, and even lower
level platforms such as microcontrollers like the Arduino™.
Languages directly supported include C/C++, C#, Java (through JNI), and J2ME. In addition, the
MDT provides the inkGear Connector (TGC), a daemon-like software that runs on Windows or
Mac OS X, and opens a TCP port on the user's local computer so that applications can connect to
it and retrieve MindSet data. As long as the TGC is running on one of the supported platforms and
connected to a MindSet, then any application written in any language that can communicate through
TCP sockets (such as Flash's ActionScript3 and scripting languages in general) can connect to the
TGC to read data from the MindSet.
Create exciting new games that challenge people to use the power of their mind or retro t your existing
games with a new dimension of brainwave control.
e MindSet Development Tools (MDT) are available for
free
and can be downloaded from the Neu-
roSky Store at
MindSet Research Tools (MRT)
e NeuroSky MindSet Research Tools (MRT) enable researchers to use the MindSet as a data col-
lection device. Using the cost effective and user-friendly features of MindSet in conjunction with the
MRT allows researchers to broaden the scope of their research and to make efficient use of resources.
e MRT includes the NeuroView software, which make it easy to connect, graph, view, and record
MindSet data in real time. e MRT also includes the more advanced NeuroSkyLab MATLAB mod-
ule, which adds the ability to de ne custom MATLAB scripts and functions for customized processing
and analysis of MindSet data.
