WaveRider: General Product Description     The WaveRider is a Windows-based physiological monitor that collects brainwaves and other biological signals. Musical feedback and visual displays change in response to variations in the signals. Signals are analyzed graphically for easy comprehension. Home and professional users learn and teach how to control mental states.    WaveRider comes with many popular pre-programed protocols ready for immediate use. Home users start with these protocols and easily modify them for their specific needs.     Professional users can monitor, record, and analyze biological signals. Complex custom protocols are quickly developed with point-and-click controls. Multiple feedback indicators can be tailored to respond to complex criteria. Processed data may be exported for further analysis off-line. Live raw and processed data may be exported for real-time interaction with user developed applications.      WaveRider consists of electrodes, computer hardware, and computer software. Electrodes that collect biological signals are affixed to the body . WaveRider hardware transmits the signals to a computer through a serial cable. WaveWare, the WaveRider Windows-based software, processes the signals for analysis, display, and feedback.   The WaveRider hardware has a single dedicated channel for reading skin resistance (GSR) and several multipurpose channels. Multipurpose low-noise channels read signals from the brain, heart, and muscles. Each multipurpose channel may be individually configured to collect the required type of biological signal. WaveRider hardware comes in two versions: WaveRider Pro and WaveRider jr.
