Abstract

The objective of this work is the development of a mobile application to manage the neurosignals of a person recorded through a headband-type brain-computer interface. The application visualizes the brain waves generated by a stimulus and processes them in order to identify the levels of emotional variables that allow establishing the mental and emotional state of a person in the performance of an activity. Specifically, the application records the electrical impulses generated by the neurons before a stimulus through the Emotiv Insight device and manages them through the Cortex API and the Phyton Flacks library, finally the data is displayed in the mobile app through of the functionalities of the application. The result is a mobile application that allows visualizing the brain waves and the variables of interest, commitment, stress, relaxation, arousal and commitment of a person when performing a particular activity. In conclusion, the mobile application allows to identify the mental and emotional state of an individual before a stimulus or activity developed through the recorded emotional signals.
