emotiv headset keys

[Saxaholic]

I just bought a brand new headset, and I got the python library
working with it, except the data is seemingly random. From what I've
read this means I need to figure out the key for my headset, but I
haven't had any luck doing that. Can someone please help me out?


Thanks!

Nevermind, I found instructions for getting the key and got my headset
working!

Thanks! I do have another question, though.

When I run render.py, each sensor is pretty much a flat line. Is that
normal? I can control the white cursor with the gyros, so I'm positive
the data has been decrypted, but now I'm just puzzled at the output.

Has anyone figured this out?  I have a new headset (bought 01.2012), and data is decrypted properly using a new key (based on gyro working properly), sensor to bit mapping seems to be correct, as "moving" the felt around causes data to jump around, but the rest of the time I am getting a flat line.  It seems the bit shifting in the library is no longer correct (frankly i don't understand it either, but it doesn't look like it would yield a float ever, which I think it should) -- has anyone looked into this?

I'm not much of a signals guy, but I think the signals need to be properly filtered and processed. I'm still working on that part, but if i figure anything else out I'll post it.
