The Matlab Streamer
This is a streamer software which reads in a .set file from EEGLAB and creates an LSL stream containing
the raw EEG data and the markers.
Author: Sarah Blum, 2016
Note: This is work in progress, but it can be used as it is. I will add a more convenient way to load files and to setup the streamer soon. Please let me know if you have any issues using the streamer!
INSTRUCTONS
- make sure EEGLAB is added to the Matlab path
- make sure the LabstreamingLayer Matlab libraries are added to the Matlab path
- in Matlab, navigate to the folder where you put the content of this repository
- place your EEGLAB raw data file into this folder (or change the path in the streamControl.m file). you will need the .set and the .fdt file
- type your filename into streamControl.m file (indicated with a comment)
- you can now start the streamer:
- type “streamControl” into the command line
- a window appears which offers to start, pause and stop the stream
- in the Matlab command line, debug outputs display the current events which are sent out
- in the network you can now see an LSL stream for the raw data and an LSL stream which contains the event markers
Dependencies
The streamer needs the eeglab plugin (https://sccn.ucsd.edu/eeglab/index.php) and an LSL library for Matlab (https://github.com/sccn/labstreaminglayer)
