Aligning data from Cyton with another sensor
I saw the post on https://openbci.com/forum/index.php?p=/discussion/2329/how-steady-is-cytons-sampling-rate-resolved, since the time stamps are not when the data was actually recorded but when it's recieved by the GUI, how can I get timestamps from when the data was actually recorded? (I need to align the data collected from the cyton with data collected from another sensor)

Hello Sig,
If you need precise alignment, as with P300 / ERP, using an external trigger is commonly used.

I'm using the cyton with the wifi shield to collect EMG data with gold cup electrodes, will that make a difference?
