Description:


    The Interactive Brainwave Visual Analyzer System (IBVAS) consists of headband, transmitter, and computer software, which allows users to view their brainwaves on a standard Macintosh. The workstation attempts to use the raw data of the brainwaves to trigger responses from a MIDI-compatible synthesizer, a laserdisk, and animation from another computer (i.e., when the subject is relatively relaxed, sound and video are similarly relaxed). The subject being studied watches and listens to the video and sound triggered by their brainwaves.
