Welcome to the OpenBCI wiki!

OpenBCI Data Format

So far, the most requested information has been a description of our data format being transmitted from OpenBCI to the PC via the Arduino. That format is entirely defined by the sketch running on the Arduino, which can be viewed here: https://github.com/OpenBCI/OpenBCI/tree/master/Arduino.

Currently (2014-02-06), for OpenBCI V1 and V2, the Arduino sketch invokes a method in our Arduino library (ADS1299Manager) for writing binary data to the Serial stream. You an either view the code directly, or if you prefer more words and less code, you can go to this dedicated wiki page on the Data Format for OpenBCI V1 and V2.
