For those who are not familiar with all the applications that Muse provided and the third-party apps created to assist the Muse headband to its fullest use potential. There are actually 5 applications that are usually used by people to develop their work. These applications are different and serve various purposes according to the direction of the developers.

Muse Lab is Interaxon’s (Muse's company name) Windows/Mac data visualization tool. It cannot connect to the Muse itself, rather, it listens for OSC data over the network. When initially opening the software, it’s blank and a bit confusing to add graphs. If you open this config file, it will set everything up for you and will start graphing as soon as it receives OSC data (over UDP port 5000).
To send OSC data to Muse Lab, Interaxon provides two options:
1. MuseIO - This is a Windows/Mac program that connects to the older 2014 Muse and stream or records OSC data. As this doesn’t work with the newer Muse, this program is now obsolete.
2. MuseDirect - This is a Windows-only program that connects to both the old 2014 and newer 2016 Muse and streams or records OSC data.
Muse Monitor is an Android/Apple app that connects directly to the Muse and provides real-time visualizations on your mobile device. Additionally, you can also record data directly on your phone, or stream OSC data out to other programs, such as Muse Lab.
Muse Player allows users to playback recording files. It would be quite useful to you if you’re developing as you wouldn’t have to worry about putting on the headset and fitting it correctly each time you want to run a test. Instead, you can record a series of events (with Muse Monitor or Muse Direct) and then when you’re ready to test, you can play them back (over OSC) using Muse Player.
