Your work is very interesting. When do you plan to make this device available? Since it is not, can you recommend any other methods to feasibly record eye movement during sleep?
Thanks. I hope to have it ready in the next few moons. I have been able to record eye movements with NeuroSky’s MindWave during sleep, albeit with a slight discomfort.
Do you have an update on the availability date for this? I’d love something like this that is ready and comfortable to wear in bed. Otherwise, which would be the best choice out of the MindWave products?
Early next year, if all goes well. Tre has recommended we try the MyndPlay BrainBand: http://myndplay.com/products.php?prod=7. It should work out of the box in Lucid Scribe with the ThinkGear plug-in, but otherwise I am confident that I can write a plug-in for it.
Very excited to see more of the halograph, hopefully in the near future. I’d have to say though, that even with a comfortable fit, which is a must for wearing while sleeping, especially if you (like me) are having trouble falling asleep, I wouldn’t pay more like your mentioned 130$ + shipping. Well, good luck!
