In this program, after again importing the data, I output a “subplot” for each node on the EEG band, where there is a separate graph of the power over time for each frequency. In addition, a sample figure is made and added at the beginning so that the figures can be more easily understood.
Also attached is a PDF of the output of the program.

Here, I import the data from Microsoft Excel spreadsheets into MATLAB, and I then remove the empty “Nan” rows from the data. I also make two timestamp arrays, so that the EEG frequencies can be associated with specific times during the recording.
Pre-Exercise Frequency Bands Data: 30s Pre Yardwork Freq Bands
Post-Exercise Frequency Bands Data: 30s Post Yard Freq bands
Since the Fall of 2020, the project has moved into a phase of developing the skills and methods to be able to visualize and analyze the EEG data taken while playing the video games. To do this, I am comparing two small data sets, taken before and after exercise. The end goal of this phase is to be able to visualize and mathematically analyze the EEG data in MATLAB.
