OpenViBE Designer is an authoring tool dedicated to creating and executing OpenViBE scenarios. It is targeted at a broad range of users, including

• students and researchers of the BCI community
• neurophysiology experts who need a tool for signal processing and visualisation in the context of brain activity
• clinicians looking for a tool to conduct neurofeedback experiments

It relies on a graphical user interface to provide signal processing tools in an intuitive way, and doesn’t require any programming skills.

Each of these tools comes as a plugin, which communicates with the application via a generic interface hiding implementation details. As a result, it is easy for a programmer to extend the range of tools provided with the platform.

Thanks to an active open-source community, an ever growing number of these signal processing boxes, or ‘box algorithms’ in OpenViBE terminology, are available in the Designer. Users may arrange any number of these boxes in a very flexible fashion, considering there is virtually no limit as to the number of boxes that may be included in a given BCI scenario.

Once a scenario is created, it may be run from the Designer, which provides a toolbar for playing, pausing and stepping through a scenario. A number of box algorithms are available for direct visualisation of results, from simple 2D displays such as power spectrum and signal display to 3D paradigms such as 3D topographical mapping. The layout of these displays may be customised as desired at scenario editing time using the window manager module of the Designer.

The skeleton-generator is a tool useful for those who want to implement a new driver or plugin. Using the GUI, the developer gives various information that will be automatically integrated in the C++ skeletons, such as driver sampling frequencies or box inputs and outputs. All fields are required, and each one can be explained by pressing the corresponding “help” button.

Once all entries are filled, they are checked and the generation process can be executed. The files produced must be integrated in an OpenViBE project (contrib/plugins/processing/signal-processing for example).
