We have been experimenting with different methods for module navigation and decided to work with jump scene events. Using these methods allows for movement between created module scenes with the use of collision boxes. There are two different implementations we are currently using. The first method centers around a panel containing multiple buttons. This has the potential to be used when selecting modules. In other words, when a system has multiple virtual lessons installed on one system, this menu can be used to navigate to the desired module. The second use for the jump scene function is navigation back to the main menu. In order to properly implement this, the same Unity hand models must be used between scenes. Because we are using hand movements to control the game, a menu is hidden on the back of the left hand to prevent cluttering the screen. As shown in the video below, this navigation method gives the user full control scene selection.

We tested out a potential method for extracting data from the EPOC+. Our primary option involves taking raw data in real time. This would allow for us to provide a real time analysis of physiological state during model use. However, we have not currently obtained clearance to obtain this data from EMOTIV.

To circumvent potential issues, we have decided to work on an alternative method for data extraction. This method can not provide real time analysis, limiting its functionality for our project’s use. If we are unable to obtain or implement real time data extraction, this method can provide a summary of brain signal activity upon completion.

When the EPOC+ extract brainwave data, the results from the recording are stored in a CSV file. Although we are currently unsure how we plan to display this information, we created a Java program using scanners to take the results from each EPOC sensor.

Here is a link to our created code:

The CSV File we use to test this program is from extracted EPOC+ data. The values from the images below correspond to the first two data rows in the provided file.
