Description

AlphaTrainer enables neurofeedback trainingbyproviding a real time feedback on its users alpha brainwaveactivity (~ 8-12 Hz). Alpha brain waves are correlatedwithrelaxation and the ability to de-stress and has, for example,beenobserved to increase during meditation. Conversely,stressmanifests itself as a so-called "alpha blocking" i.e. theinabilityto increase alpha activity.

Alpha feedback training is a well documented scientificmethodfor increasing alpha level and it is used clinically instresstreatment. AlphaTrainer was built to comply with thesignalprocessing described in the neurofeedback literature. It isthefirst and currently the only mobile application whichperformsindividual calibration of the alpha frequency and alphalevel whichis described in the literature as extremely important inorder forthe neuro feedback training's efficacy.

Currently, AlphaTrainer only supports the NeuroSkyMindWaveMobile EEG headset, but we plan to add support for otherBCIs asthey are released. The app contains a "dummy headset" whichenablesplaying with the application without the need for anactualBCI.

AlphaTrainer was initially developed by Pelle Krøgholt andMartinPoulsen during the M.Sc thesis. For details about theAlphaTrainerdesign, implementation and the theoretical foundation,pleaseconsult the thesis here:http://alphatrainer.github.io/mscthesis
