Technology Development for Unblessed People using BCI: A Survey
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Brain Computer Interface (BCI) systems enable unblessed people to operate devices and applications through their mental activities. It is believed that the BCI technology should be a blessing for the unblessed persons who may be suffering from severe neuromuscular disorders. So in this paper, we present a review on the progress of research efforts and then we analyze the challenges in BCI research and development for unblessed people. Here, a general Electro-Encephalogram (EEG) based BCI system is discussed which can assist the paralyzed or physically or mentally challenged people in performing their various routine tasks or applications.

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) research and (future) applications raise important ethical issues that need to be addressed to promote societal acceptance and adequate policies. Here we report on a survey we conducted among 145 BCI researchers at the 4th International BCI conference, which took place in May-June 2010 in Asilomar, California. We assessed respondents' opinions about a number of to...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Brain Computer Interface (BCI) Speller System Based on SSVEP Signals
BCI is one of the most intriguing technologies among other HCI systems, mostly because of its capability of recording brain activities. Spelling BCIs, which help paralyzed people to maintain communication, are one of the striking topics in the field of BCI. In this scientific a spelling BCI system with high transfer rate and accuracy that uses SSVEP signals is proposed.In addition, we suggested...

From the survey it is concluded that P300 signal are the most appropriate signal for c...
متن کاملA preliminary survey on the perception of marketability of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI) and initial development of a repository of BCI companies
The marketability of current and future BCI applications may greatly influence the decisions of goverments, the industry and academia. In this paper we first explored with a survey when respondents (N=145), who were present at the 4th International BCI Meeting, expect that different BCI applications will become commercially available. Second, we surveyed how well existing BCI companies are know...

Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) record brain signals, analyze and translate them into control commands which are relayed to output devices that carry out desired actions. These systems do not use normal neuromuscular output pathways. Actually, the principal goal of BCI systems is to provide better life style for physically-challenged people which are suffered from cerebral palsy, amyotrophic l...
