We need a signal correlate for breathing to be parsed by our custom code and then trigger a stimulus

[Fehings]

User story

To get to the point of breathing gated stimulation, we need to demonstrate that a breathing correlate signal can be read, parsed and used to trigger stimulation.

Details

Please provide some more detail about the user story here, including any relevant links to further reading or information, or any notes from discussions - this will help people working on this story to understand it better

This will involve initially, using a signal generator as an input to the computer running the ds8r software. The computer will need to read the input from the breathing belt and we will have a custom function to interpret it. The custom function will detect a feature (e.g. inhalation) and translate this to a digital (? or would analogue be better?) signal to trigger taVNS.

Acceptance criteria

In this section, write about what "done" looks like for this story

• [x] Demonstrate parsing of proxy signal by computer
• [x] Interpret the signal at the correct point to give a digital pulse
• [x] Show that this pulse can trigger ds8r stimulation

following this, we will need an actual breathing belt to use.
