Record & Analyze your brain activity while playing Chess

[oreHGA]

Pasting thread from discord:

On LiChess you can export moves & corresponding timestamps.

• parse response from LiChess on game movements per participant
• we can record brain activity while playing chess and split EEG bins per move
• we can also embed LiChess in usefusion.app/playground and export the data after the game
• give EEG analysis alongside chess moves - basic one will just be changes in brain power
• utopia: both players recording EEG while playing chess on Fusion

We can do an open dataset curation based on the data from this and post on huggingface

There's code we can leverage from here - https://github.com/lichess-org/api-demo

Can generate tokens manually from LiChess dashboard for testing - https://lichess.org/account/oauth/token/create

We made some progress on this at Edge Esmeralda. I people play 3 chess games with simulataneous eeg recordings for both participants. From initial investigastions, I was able to see changes in relative theta power during the key points in the chess game - linking this cognitive workload.

Next steps here will be to:

• observe changes across all participants
• take a look a relative power across all frequency bands not just theta... then do a pairwise comparision e.g theta/alpha
