Using the Emotiv Epoc with the Emotiv API

After using OpenVibe to get the signals, we spent time on the Emotiv API.
It proposes directly different functions for three types of behavior:

  1. The emotions;
  2. The cognition;
  3. The expressions.

This last one, is the one wich allows to get the most results in a few time. So, we decided to use it (we don’t have time to explore all the possibility the Epoc offers).
It is also easy to use and, in a short time, we managed to implement it in OpenInterface.

Here is a list of the different expressions that we can recognize (this works for most tests) :

  • The blink of eyes
  • The eyebrow movement
  • The left wink
  • The right Wink
  • The look on the right
  • The look on the left
  • Clench teeth
  • The smile
