SSVEP based Bremen-BCI – boosting information transfer rates
نویسنده
چکیده
In recent years, there has been increased interest in using steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) in brain-computer interface (BCI) systems; the SSVEP approach currently provides the fastest and most reliable communication paradigm for the implementation of a non-invasive BCI. This paper presents recent developments in the signal processing of the SSVEP based Bremen-BCI system, which allowed one of the subjects in an online experiment to reach a peak information transfer rate (ITR) of 124 bit/min. It is worth mentioning that this ITR value is higher than all values previously published in the literature for any kind of BCI paradigms. PACS numbers: 87.85.dd, 87.85.Ng, 87.85.Wc Submitted to: J.

متن کاملEmotional faces boost up steady-state visual responses for brain-computer interface.
Steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) can be used successfully for brain-computer interfaces (BCI) with multiple commands and high information transfer rates. In this study, we investigated a novel affective SSVEP paradigm using flickering video clips of emotional human faces, and evaluated their performance in an 8-command BCI controlling a robotic arm in near real-time. Single-trial ...

متن کاملOn the stimulus duty cycle in steady state visual evoked potential
Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) are useful devices that allow direct control of external devices using thoughts, i.e. brain’s electrical activity. There are several BCI paradigms, of which steady state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) is the most commonly used due to its quick response and accuracy. SSVEP stimuli are typically generated by varying the luminance of a target for a set number of fr...
