Once an electrode senses electrical values, the wires sensors will send the data to a jack box which helps to organize where the signal are coming from. This helps in the medical industry when it comes to apply the data to help improve systems for mental health and diagnoses processes.
Our group isn't using electrodes and therefore doesn't need to use a jack box
Then, how will we translate the computer-generated values?
Arduino UNO R4 Minima's built-in digital to analog converter.
Digital to analog converters were a necesssary component in this translation phase as some of the components that the team used would need an analog signal.
In the context of this project, the DAC will utilize a reference voltage to generate values that would match their digital counterpart
In order to incoporate a DAC system within the PCB, the team agreed the easiest way would be through the built-in Arduino DAC on the R4 series.
The coding and hook-up are familiar and easier to troubleshoot.
