BrainAccess Board#
BrainAccess Board is a desktop application for connecting to, recording from, and reviewing biosignal hardware — BrainAccess EEG devices, any Lab Streaming Layer (LSL) stream on your network, and synthetic test signals. It runs on Windows and Linux (macOS support is planned).
Everything is organised into seven screens, reached from the left sidebar:
Screen |
What it is for |

A chat assistant, Jena, is available from the 💬 button in the sidebar — she can explain how your signal looks and how to use the application (see Ask Jena (chat assistant)).
