Muse S Athena on the desktop: CSV now, LSL on Lab
Athena is first-class in MindVault: same live view, same local recording, same CSV and EDF as Muse 2 and Muse S. EEG is still four channels at 256 Hz. Athena uses optics / fNIRS, not PPG. You do not need Interaxon’s SDK or the meditation app for the live session.
LSL, OSC, an HTTP API, and event markers sit on Lab. If you need a file for Python, MNE, or EEGLAB, Base is the export. If you need a live pipe, Lab is the plan — when the beta opens.
Pick a plan — 30 minutes live, then Base, Lab, or Research. Waitlist for the Lab beta.
