[FieldTrip] Real-time Analysis using Matlab with Emotiv EEG Headset

["Jörn M. Horschig"]

Hi Walker,

you could start here:
http://fieldtrip.fcdonders.nl/faq/how_should_i_get_started_with_the_fieldtrip_realtime_buffer
and then search for related pages on the wiki-page. This should get you 
started on how to read in the data. Additionally, there are example 
scripts coming with FieldTrip, i think in the realtime folder. That 
should point you to how to read in data ;)

Best,
Jörn

I am currently trying to use the applications that FieldTrip offers such as 'Emotiv2ft.exe' and the 'demo_buffer.exe' and when I try to plot the signals in real time, I am not able to. I just need to be able to import all the raw EEG signals into Matlab for now. Once I have the real-time signals in Matlab I will be processing them but as of right now that is where I am stuck at. Would you have any suggestions on how to import the signals so I am able to process them in real-time or as close as possible?
