Record with Mind Monitor on Windows Laptop?

Post by kontinentet »

Is there any way to use Mind Monitor on a laptop to record with a Muse EEG?

I tried the following:
  • Phone Link but it could not run apps on my phone due to my phone brand.
  • BlueStack (phone emulator) and could open Mind Monitor but kept getting stuck on the bluetooth connect screen (while trying to connect to my Muse).
  • "WSA Manager with APK Installer" but had install issues.

Mind Monitor only runs on mobile devices. Android Emulators do not emulate Bluetooth properly.
Additionally, the reason I didn't release a Windows native version is that Bluetooth on PC just doesn't work very well. The Muse pumps out a TON of data and Bluetooth on windows just isn't good enough to keep up. I tried six different bluetooth USB devices and I could only get one that would even connect to the Muse, but even that one couldn't sustain data transfer.

And Android app to connect over it to a Windows PC? Shame on Interaxon not to offer the Muse SDK anymore. The MuseSDK is not available anymore for everyone:

What is a good solution to connect the Muse to a PC running Windows or Linux? LabStreamingLayer which does not work with the Raspberry Pi 4? The best way to connect the Muse to a PC or Raspberry Pi is not to use the Muse, but another EEG device.
