BrainBeats is an open-source EEGLAB plugin that jointly analyzes EEG and cardiovascular signals using three protocols for brain-heart interplay research.

The paper evaluates EEG and HRV metrics from portable devices to identify correlates of well-being in real-world settings, finding associations between eudaimonic well-being and HRV metrics, and physical well-being and EEG asymmetry.

The paper validates a low-cost wearable EEG system for measuring EEG spectral features comparable to a high-density system, showing reliable alpha power and asymmetry measurements.
