Greetings from Portugal.

This is my first post, so i'll introduce me. I am a master's degree student in multimedia technology and i'm currently starting to work to my thesys. I will build a system that can react to a heart rate and a brainwave sensor. The system woud interpret those signals and create music and images/video according to that. I think that PD would be the ideal programming software for that. The main problem, and where i'm searching for help, is this:

• do you guys knows about some sensors that i can use

to measure the heart rate and brainwave? I've made a quick search over the net but i couldn't find anything.

• how do i connect those sensors with PD? I suppose

they will be connected to the computer via USB (my laptop only has USB ports) bu ban PD read values from an USB port?

• I would be everything much easier if i could connect

those sensors to a I-CubeX system, so i would only deal with MIDI data. Do you know any heart rate and branwave sensor that can be plugged to an I-CubeX system?

The ideal scenario would be to have those two sensors to transmit MIDI data to a MIDI interface, but i don't know if this is possible.

Thanks in advance.
