Synopsis

BCPy2000 takes the C++ out of BCI2000 programming. It is aimed at developers of new applications and new signal processing methods, providing a platform for rapid, flexible development of experimental Brain-Computer Interface systems in Python. It takes advantage of various high-level Python packages: VisionEgg[1] for stimulus presentation, NumPy[2] and SciPy[3] for signal processing and classification, and IPython[4] for interactive debugging.

You can program a python-based application module, signal processing module, or even a signal source module for generating custom test signals and playing back data files. You can slow the system right down or even step through packet-by-packet, while interactively debugging your python code with pdb.

BCPy2000 implements a lot of infrastructure that allows you to get an application module running quickly. It also contains a set of optional tools, which are still a work in progress, but which are rapidly turning into a kind of "standard library" of Pythonic signal-processing algorithms and stimulus widgets.

The source code is available under the terms of the GNU General Public License v3.

BCPy2000 is coming soon: 30.09.2008

 ==Synopsis==
-BCPy2000 is a set of modules for BCI2000 that allows a highly customizable experiment design using the Python scripting language. It was developed by Thomas Schreiner at the Max-Planck-Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tübingen / Germany. An extensive amount of relevant documentation is contained in the project thesis, which is available for download [http://{{SERVERNAME}}/downloads/doc/BCPy2000Thesis.pdf here].
