---- Ahmed, Mind controlled quadcoptor. Awesome plan, Ahmed. You are a busy bee. FYI, I've my paws on an RC regular helicoptor with video camera. The camera can be turned on and off remotely but there is no live streaming or GPS etc. Data is stored on a microcard. I've a trip early next week. We can play with it at the end of the week. This is not to replace your quadcoptor! On the quadcopter and this project, you are welcome to pitch directly to Physics 249 MWF 9:55. Let me know. I'm sure Professor Winokur would permit you to pitch to Physics 247. Please add to your EEG project wiki immediately an initial evaluation of safety. Hooking up a person electrically in any fashion is definitely cause for concern. The design must ensure there is no unsafe failure mode. Any testing or operation may require special circumstances. I cc here sleep scientist Daniel Dentico from UW Psychiatric Inst. who I hope will provide advice on construction and safety, and possibly join/assist your project. She and I have had some discussions of sleep in humans and other animals. It is fascinating stuff. Daniela - who is the physics student who was working in your lab? I forget... -Duncan ---- |
