EEG-VR Laboratory Setup
#

Setting up and validating the integrated EEG–VR research pipeline on-site:

  • EEG hardware — BrainVision system configuration, electrode preparation, signal quality checks
  • LabJack triggers — Connecting VR events to EEG markers with sub-millisecond accuracy
  • VR equipment — Testing the new Pimax Crystal Super headset (RTX 5060 Ti workstation: i9 285K, 64 GB DDR5)
  • Pilot experiments — End-to-end validation of EEG + VR synchronization

Python VR Workshop
#

A full-day hands-on workshop where participants build VR experiments from scratch using Python, Ursina, and pygame. Topics range from first 3D scenes to a complete experiment paradigm with trial sequencing, data logging, and EEG triggers.
