The aim of our project is modulating heart rate interoception through music feedback to check if getting in tune with your heart has an impact on your performance in cognitive tasks and emotional state.
The hypothesis for the current experiment is that better cardiac interoception might be positively correlated with task performance and emotion regulation, hence our next step would be training cardiac interoception through music based biofeedback.
The groundbreaking part of our project is that we are testing a new, easily accessible biofeedback - where you get in tune with your heart while listening to music, and the only device you need is your phone and smartwatch. In future we hope that our music based HR feedback allows people to manage their emotions in distress and also help them focus better.

Establish correlations between cardiac interoceptions and cognitive task performance and emotional health Design a musical biofeedback to train people to get in tune with their heart and improve their daily lives
Heart rate to music Develop audio based on resting HR Convert HR signal to audio stream Tools: Python Data: Example HR data provided, participants own data (if wearing Fitbit)
Cognitive tasks Implement SART, Flanker’s, Posner’s Cueing and subjective scale Tools: PsychoPy (Pavlovia)
Extension to BrainHack: Enable real-time streaming and processing of HR data to generate audio Tools: Fitbit software developer kit (API), web app integration
