Hey,

I am trying to write a driver for using the BTS FreeEMG system - http://www.btsbioengineering.com/BTSBio ... MG300.html.

The issue I am facing is that it is not a direct communication between sensors and my system. The sensors communicate to a mobile unit which in turn communicates with the system through a wi-fi system.

Any advice on how to develop other than the driver development documentation?

Regards,

Karthik

Hi !

It looks like a nice contribution

Developing a driver is always device-dependant. In your case you want to handle the communication between the openvibe driver and a wi-fi device.
Does the manufacturer provides an API to communicate with the device ? In that case you should have everything at hand (hopefully).
If not, do you have the specification of the communication protocol ? In order to know precisely what is outputed by the device through wi-fi.

Regarding the wi-fi itself, I am surely not a specialist, and I don't have much experience with how to communicate with the wi-fi stack at low-level (if you ever come to this solution)...
If anyone as more knowledge, please share !
