New release of OpenViBE 0.5.0 available

Post by yrenard »

New release of OpenViBE 0.5.0 "Christmas edition" is now available for download at :
http://openvibe.inria.fr/?q=download

=== Overview =========================================

OpenViBE is an opensource platform that enables to design, test and use Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI). Broadly speaking, OpenViBE can be used in many real-time Neuroscience applications.

The OpenViBE platform stands out for its high modularity. It addresses the needs of different types of users (programmers and non-programmers) and proposes a user-friendly graphical language which allows non-programmers to design a BCI without writing a single line of code.

OpenViBE is portable, independent of hardware or software targets, can run under Windows and Linux and is entirely based on free and open-source software. OpenViBE is compatible with MATLAB programming.

OpenViBE comes with preconfigured scenarios and runs already existing applications such as :
* BCI based on motor imagery
* P300 speller
* Neurofeedback
* Real-time visualization of brain activity in 2D or 3D

OpenViBE is available under the terms of the LGPL-v2+. The whole software is developed in C++. It consists of a set of software modules that can be integrated easily and efficiently to design BCI applications such as for Virtual Reality interaction.

=== What changed since 0.4.0 ? =======================

In this new release, you will find the following modifiactions (+ for adds, * for modifications, - for removes) :

+ We added a new driver : brain products vAmp acquisition device
+ We added a new driver : g.Tec's gUSBamp acquisition device
+ We updated the sample scenarios
+ We propose a new P300-based pipeline based on the xDAWN algorithm
+ We added an online comparison of different processing pipelines performance (e.g. multiple classifiers)
* We updated the dependencies installation for windows so that Visual C++ Runtime gets included in the package
* We updated the dependencies installation for windows so that the lack of internet connection does not abort the installation when DirectX is not present
* We updated the online documentation and tutorials
* We fixed lots of bugs !

=== What's coming in the next release(s) =============

Here is a snapshot of what we are currently doing and what you can expect from the next release :

+ A Neuroscan acquisition driver
+ A MitsarEEG driver
+ More documentation on the sample scenarios
* GUI definition will move from glade to gtk-builder
* VR demos will move from OpenMASK to native Ogre3D

=== Closing words ====================================
