The participant group included a total of seven vol-unteers (males) who agreed to participate in theresearch. Their mean age was 29.67 (range 2456).The participants indicated that they do not havehearing or visual impairments. Participation was vol-untary and informed consent was obtained for eachparticipant in order to employ their EEG data in ourstudy. We captured the brain activity of the subjects with the proposed EEG prototype (see [1]) and the OpenBCI Cyton board. Gold cup electrodes were placed in accordance with the 1020 international system for electrode placement andattached to the subjects scalp using a conductive paste. Electrode-skin impedances were checked to bebelow 15 kΩ at all electrodes. Several studies have proved that the alpha rhythm predominates in the occipital area of the brain when subjects remain with their eyes closed and it is reduced when visualstimulation takes place. In accordance with these works, the input channel of the prototype was located in the O2 position. Moreover, to reduce the setup time and improve the EEG signal quality, the reference and ground electrodes were placed inthe FP2 and A1 positions, respectively, where the absence of hair facilitates its placement. All the experiments were conducted in a sound-attenuated and controlled environment. Participants were seated in a comfortable chair and asked to be relaxed and focused on the task, trying to avoid any distraction or external stimulus. Experiments were composed of 2 tasks: the first one, 60 s of oE and the second, 60 s of cE. Each task was separated by a pause of at least 3 s to ensure the participant is rested before a new task. In order to simulate a real-life situation, the subject could move his gaze freely during the eye-open tasks, without the need to keep it at a fixed point. The procedure was conveniently explained in advance allowing the participants to feel comfortable and familiar with the test environment. Possible artifacts were minimized by asking them not to speak, move or blink (or atleast as little as possible) throughout the oE task. A total of 10 tasks (i.e. 10 min) were recorded for each participant, which corresponds to five tasks of oE and five tasks of cE. Data is organized in a folder for each subject (S1, S2, S3, etc.). Inside each subject folder we find two different folders: PP: which contains the recordings captured with the proposed prototype. OPB:which contains the recordings captured with the Cyton board. Inside each of these folders we will find 10 files: 5 corresponding to open eyes and closed eyes. The name of these files follows the structure: Closed eyes: cerrados[# recording]_[# subject].csv Open eyes: abiertos[# recording]_[# subject].csv Each .csv file contains 2 data columns: timestamp and O2 channel.
