NIA EEG frequency

[ampopp7563]

Hello, I have been on the market for a while trying to locate a cheap EEG device. This seems to be rather similar to what I am looking for. Is there an external API for doing personal development with this device? I am assuming it must just measure the different frequencies and is there a way to get these raw readings? I have been interested in developing many different applications, one of which would be an alarm clock that waits you up when you are in a early stage of you sleep cycle, to avoid waking up in deep sleep which is always annoying :P Any information on what exactly these raw readings represent and if they can be obtained through some sort of API, since directly interfacing with the hardware would be cumbersome :P

the nia is based both hardware and software of the cyberlink brainfingers a $3,000 device
hence uses the brainfingers sdk for development, and that sdk aint a free download the original designers charge $500 for the sdk, so may not realy be cheap for what your looking for
this website more towards what your looking for includes software and schematics for low cost eeg machines

Do you know what this SDK allows you access to? Is this basically just a cheap eeg device or does it only monitor a specific set of frequencies?

probaly limeted, since only has two live sensors and a baseline/ground sensor.
