This unsigned one-byte value reports the current eSense Meditation meter of the user, which indicates the level of a user’s mental “calmness” or “relaxation”. Its value ranges from 0 to 100. Note that Meditation is a measure of a person’s mental levels, not physical levels, so simply relaxing all the muscles of the body may not immediately result in a heightened Meditation level. However, for most people in most normal circumstances, relaxing the body often helps the mind to relax as well. Meditation is related to reduced activity by the active mental processes in the brain, and it has long been an observed effect that closing one’s eyes turns off the mental activities which process images from the eyes, so closing the eyes is often an effective method for increasing the Meditation meter level.
Description
Matlab code to read Meditation using Brainsense
ThinkGear™ is the technology inside every NeuroSky product or partner product that enables a device to interface with the wearers’ brainwaves .The ThinkGear Connector (TGC) runs as a background process on your computer and is responsible for directing headset data from the serial port to an open network socket. It includes the thinkgear module and eeg sensor that touches the forehead (fp1 of the electrode postion recommended by 10/20 electrode system), and the reference points located on the ear clip. Thinkgear module(TGAM1) contains the onboard chip that processes all of the data and provides this data to software and applications in digital form.It is available on both Windows and Macintosh, any language or framework that contains a socket library should be able to communicate with it. Both the raw brainwaves and the eSense Meters (Attention and Meditation) and eyeblink are calculated on the ThinkGear chip.
MEDITATION eSense
This unsigned one-byte value reports the current eSense Meditation meter of the user, which indicates the level of a user’s mental “calmness” or “relaxation”. Its value ranges from 0 to 100.

However, for most people in most normal circumstances, relaxing the body often helps the mind to relax as well. Meditation is related to reduced activity by the active mental processes in the brain, and it has long been an observed effect that closing one’s eyes turns off the mental activities which process images from the eyes, so closing the eyes is often an effective method for increasing the Meditation meter level. Distractions, wandering thoughts, anxiety, agitation, and sensory stimuli may lower the Meditation meter levels. See “eSense Meters” above for details about interpreting eSense levels in general.
By default, output of this Data Value is enabled. It is typically output once a second
