I think I finally found one fix to some of the high signal levels, I don't know what causes it but the software guys are looking into it now and at least there is an easy fix. In the 1.004 software, when you run Calibration, right-click in the lower right corner of the calibration window to...
Alright, it's probably about time to stop lurking and actually post... I got my NIA a few weeks ago, and due to a surplus of free time, have spent a ridiculous amount of time learning to use it; mostly without using the muscle or glance sensors. (Why own a brain controller if you're not...
Hello everyone, I'm glad to introduce you to our Neural Impulse Actuator, OCZ's latest innovative product for the gaming market. Let's start with the retail box. Front: http://www.ocztechnologyforum.com/staff/nicoocz/guides/NIA/NIA1.jpg
To prove this community is interested and dedicated to interesting projects with the NIA, Ive combed through the 20+ pages of the forums here and weeded out all the applications people have come up with over the last couple years and have formatted it here for a Directory of sorts (hopefully to be...
You can get them here: http://www.ocztechnology.com/drivers/OCZ_Neural_Impulse_Actuator/ BTW, those are unified drivers that are working with both 32 and 64-bit Vista and XP :thumbs:
A few of you has recently contacted me by private message asking basically the same question regarding getting your NIA to work. I basically told all of you to repeat the question as a public thread in this forum, but so far none of you have done so. The reason why I ask you to do so, is that...

Hello. i bought nia today, and i have the same problem as lot of users in this forum - baseline too low. I have Windows 7 32-bit, and here aren't any wireless devices closer then 2 meters to me. i've downloaded the latest nia patch. problem is that nia software displays only some little...
Short Description: Project Triathlon is a set of Python scripts (with code from pynia) for using the nia-hardware without the nia-software, based on a totally different approach than the official nia-software. Before using it you need to check the dependencies and install what is needed. I...
Hallo ich hab eine Frage bezüglich der Sensoren: Was messen diese genau? Die Gehirn und Muskelströme? über die Feuchtigkeit, den Widerstand oder die Spannung?
Basically what i have done here is modded a usb cables power to connect though a 5 volt ad-dc adapter, to power the NIA. The way to do this is to leave the green and white wire (data) as well as the shielding intact and cut though the red and black wire, power and ground respectfully. To make sure...
I wouldn't consider myself a scientist by any means, but I did manage to scrounge up an idea that could possibly be a replacement to attempting to game with the head unit. I just can't manage using this for what it was made to do. I'm sorry OCZ. I tried my hardest, but it just isn't practical and...
I'm working on coding an simple app that will ignore input for an hour, from then on.. if the NIA triggers the program more than 20 times in a minute with eye movement, it will either play a chosen wav/ogg/mp3 audio file or possibly control a LED(looking at a few cheap options, all less than $10AUS...
Hi folks, just ordered a NIA from cyberport.de who claim to already have it :eek: Well, let's see. After reading all the reviews and most posts on the NIA that I could find, I asked myself, if there was a way to use the NIA as a mouse or cursor replacement. Wouldn't it be a great idea to do...
I found my self today in a local computer store and the NIA was pointed out to me, it grabbed my attention very well, but its been around since 2008, there is very little info i can find about it and this is what i would like to know. 1. how responsive and or proficient have users found using it...
This is not a secret anymore ? I am very excited and cant wait to see news on this topic. (if it still IS secret ... feel free to silently delete this thread)
Hi all, this is the first message that I send and unfortunately I have a problem. I worked well with my NIA until this afternoon, when I removed the headband and I put on again, from that moment ceased to function. The signal is now always above the green line even I touch the box and is very...
Hi, I have had the NIA about a week and got past the grounding problem and can play pong pretty well now. Glance is a bit hit and miss, but it works if I twitch my eye rather than look left or right. But when I launch a profile it won't control anything. I have tried making custom profiles with...
Ok I thought I would create a separate thread for the 'nia Output Reader' program that I've been working on. Today I was able to get it working with the Neuroserver, and BrainBay software. The Neuroserver software is a daemon that runs on your windows or linux box that acts as a server for incoming...
My NIA Give a LIGHT shock on touch of the NIA Box and the readings are off the wall. What Should I do. Cause My PC dose the same thing, But its all grounded. When I take The NIA Out, My Pc don't shock ether. What Should I Do's
Hi, I just got delivery of my unit - quite excited about it but after about 6 hours am still getting quite erratic results. After an initial search of the forums, there have been quite a few RMA issued so would be good if someone could step by step me through my situation to see if I have a dead...
Hi, I have recently got my NIA and I am starting to use it. Like many others I had a problem with grounding but when I touch the NIA box with my hand, it is ok. What worries me much more is that the signal is very sensitive to any movement of the cable that goes from the sensors to the box. If...
OK, so I have my first real application for the NIA written. For all the Twitter Junkies out there I have written TweetDreams, an app that can detect when you are dreaming, via detection of REM sleep. When the software detects you are dreaming, it can post customizable Tweets to you Twitter...
To use NIA for Non-Gaming applications clear understanding of the nature and the timing of the raw data delivered via its USB to further processing, are crucial. As there is no documention concerning this matter is available from the supplier, NIA-users tried to find out themselves and published a...
I'd like to announce the beta release of two pieces of software, MindMaster MIDI and MindMaster DMX. Each program works in a similar way. It sends the levels of alpha and beta waves out as MIDI control change messages or DMX for lighting control. There's a YouTube video up on the DMX page. ...
Hi, I just got my NIA, set up and install all went problem free, touching box brought yellow line down, worked for about 1 minute. I played pong briefly. I tried unconnecting, reconnecting unit to pc, headstrap to unit, the connection is very tight, wriggling the headstrap to unit cable, wetting...
I have found another problem with my NIA. From time to time CPU usage for nia.exe goes very high - about 90% on my Pentium4@3GHz for a few minutes. When I unplug the PC-nia cable, it says there is no device and CPU usage goes down. However, when I unplug the sensor cable nia.exe CPU usage does not...
Wow this is frustrating. Been trying for 2 days to make this work but with little success really. I know it may take many weeks/months to master control of this unit but right now I hold out little hope tbh.... I'm really impressed with the potential of the NIA and am willing to work with it but...
I just got my NIA a couple of days ago and while I am slowly exploring it I was wondering if other than this forum you guys knew of any other resources to help learn about how to use this product and also to learn the science behind it. For example I found this little glance calibration page. ...
Hey Guys I just got my nia yesterday and I love it so far. I have been able to get 30 kills to 1 death in UT99 using the UT3 easy profile with the bots on easy in one day of playing with it. From reading what everyone on the board said I was thinking it was going to be a long time before I would be...
Alright, so I've been doing some work, as best I can, on this stuff for a week or so now. I've spent a lot of time basically just reviewing the information out there, and trying to make a few guesses, as I've got only basic (if broad) grounding in electronics, logic, coding, etc. Links (taken...
