feature request: add support for LSL data streams #130

Open andrewheusser opened 7 years ago

andrewheusser commented 7 years ago

both openbci and muse can send directly to LSL, so it would be convenient to support this protocol. it was described to me as "NTP for multiple data streams", which i think could be very useful in general (e.g. plotting a streaming movie trajectory concurrently with streaming brain data)

jeremymanning commented 7 years ago

this would be very useful-- @andrewheusser are you thinking this would be another format available to use to initialize stream objects?

also, here's a link to the LSL python library: https://github.com/sccn/labstreaminglayer/tree/master/LSL/liblsl-Python

@jeremymanning - exactly, the stream object would look the same, but the way the data gets into it would be through LSL

very cool... 👍
