Which Emotiv? #20

Could the readme make clear which Emotiv model(s) this library works with? I'm unclear if the $300 consumer model is enough or if the $500 kit is necessary. Thanks!

emokit works with both the consumer and research models - they're actually the same as far as hardware is concerned, with only the encryption key being different.

At the moment emokit will only talk to the consumer headset out-of-the-box, but you can make a slight modification to line 40 of emokit.c (change 'type' from 0 to 1) to use the research headset.

Great! Thanks for the information.
