Description
There are several EEG devices (especially headsets) working only with Brainflow.
However, It seems tricky to send event marker outside Brainflow (Their examples call brainflow and psychopy function in same commandline, not let psychopy send marker to independent brainflow thread/process).
I found a work-around using Brainflow->LabStreamingLayer, but it seems not an ideal solution considering temporal accuracy.
NeurotechX shared a lot of notebooks integrates PsychoPy and Brainflow, but as far as I understand, they call psychopy and brainflow in same .py script, not allow communication btw two, right? (i.e. send event marker in GUI designed PsychoPy experiment.)
(Maybe, just call Brainflow inside PsychoPy would be one solution.)

Research direction
No repository files or tests are identified. Start by reviewing the existing BrainFlow/PsychoPy notebooks and the BrainFlow-to-LabStreamingLayer workaround, then determine the supported communication boundary between independent processes. Done should be a documented implementation that lets a separate PsychoPy process send event markers to BrainFlow with suitable temporal accuracy.
