Hello Everyone,

I am doing a project using the Mindwave Mobile Headset. The outputs of the Mindwave Mobile Headset are attention and meditation values from 0 to 100. We want these values. We decided the best way to get this data from the bluetooth headset and use it with my arduino uno is to use a bluesmirf silver.

My group and I have tried pairing the headset to the bluesmrf silver on a mac computer (Not sure if this is relevant) numerous times. We used the instructions from this link http://mbed.org/users/RorschachUK/code/Mindwave-basic/

We are able to get the bluesmirf in command mode to configure it but when we disconnect the power to then reboot the bluesmirf silver and pair it to the bluetooth Mindwave Mobile headset it fails.

Please let me know how to fix this so that the Headset can pair with the bluesmirf or if their is another way to get the data from the mindwave mobile headset.

Thank You so Much :D
