BrainAccess Board has been updated to 2.5.0 for both Windows and Linux operating systems. Apart from minor bug fixes it includes the release of Python API for the BrainAccess Board. The Python API enables access of Board functionality using Python programming language that includes:

  • Direct real-time access of the EEG data stream/buffer
  • Adding/removing annotation stream or other LSL (Lab Streaming Layer) based streams
  • Starting/stopping the recording of data and other commands

This simplifies most experiment setups for users using Python programming language as all the data buffering, synchronization with annotations and data saving is done by the Board. Please check the Board’s Python API documentation here (https://www.brainaccess.ai/documentation/board-python-api/)

The new BrainAccess Board version is available for download here.

    If you are thinking about conducting EEG research, you may have come across the term International 10–20 System, often used when referring to electrode positions on an EEG cap. But what does it actually mean? In this article we provide a short overview and discuss why it still so important in EEG research today. Electroencephalography…

    From Literature to Live Data: LLMs as Full-Cycle Research Companions

    For decades, the challenge in neuroscience has not only been collecting brain data, it has been making sense of it. EEG signals are noisy, high-dimensional, and shaped by dozens of interacting variables. Interpreting them well has traditionally required years of specialist training. But a growing body of evidence suggests that large language models (LLMs) may…

    When Sound Becomes Medicine: BrainAccess HALO in Music Therapy Research

    Can lying on a vibrating table listening to carefully crafted audio actually change your brain? A team of Portuguese engineers built a system to find out and the results are surprisingly measurable. Sound therapy is one of those ideas that sits awkwardly between ancient wisdom and modern science. Cultures across history have used chanting, singing…

    Multimodal Integration: How Your Experiment Can Benefit from Multiple Modalities

    In this article, we explore multimodal integration, the practice of combining signals from different sensors in the same experiment to build a richer, more reliable picture of brain activity, cognitive states, and physiology. At BrainAccess, this is a direction we are actively building toward, with two major developments in the pipeline: a new HALO headband…
