Hi from Barcelona,
First off, thanks for making a great piece of software freely available to researchers! I definitely appreciate the efforts made here. I need to work with OpenVibe for my thesis, which deals with sonification of EEG-derived signals. The software used for sonification will be Puredata or Max/MSP. I'Ve done a lot of searching and also tried the VRPN-to-OSC gateway, all to no avail.
I've figured that the best thing for me to do would be to try and write my own box for OpenVibe to send messages directly via OSC. I'm reading up on the OV documentation as well as the OSC protocol. I'd like to point out that my programming skills are, at best, rudimentary and experience minimal. Am I walking into a world of pain here?
Alternatively, does anyone know of OpenVibe being used in real-time BCI sonification, or of any VRPN objects that are available for Max/MSP?
My goal is to simultaneously stream alpha and beta band power values, and if possible actual signal amplitude data in real-time for sound processing.
Thanks in advance for any and all help!
OSC Plugin/Box for OpenVibe = trouble?

Hi flood and welcome on board,
We can help the developers with the API and the openvibe mechanics, but we would not be able to help much for "pure C++ problems".
Hope this helps...

Indeed writing a new box to communicate via OSC is a good idea. As you may notice when you read the developer documentation, developing new plugins for openvibe requires C++ knowledges (no need to be a specialist but experience is really needed). You may need someone to help with the coding part.I've figured that the best thing for me to do would be to try and write my own box for OpenVibe to send messages directly via OSC.

This forum topic was the last time I heard about that.Alternatively, does anyone know of OpenVibe being used in real-time BCI sonification, or of any VRPN objects that are available for Max/MSP?
