Emotiv EPOC Headset Workshop — Laboratory of Neuropsychophysiology, Faculty of Psychology and Education Sciences, University of Porto

I took part in one day introduction to the use of the this smart device.

As it appeared using it is not complicated at all, and software provided (TestBench) is very intuitive.

Although it is necessary to practice with somebody that already used it.

The device was mainly created for gaming and virtual reality as a human-computer interface. After its intruduction in 2005 it was accepted and approved by scientific community. Then thinks changed a little…

Because it is very noise-sensitive it has received lots of bad feedback and not accepted any more by the scientific community.
