Affective Pacman: A Frustrating Game for Brain-Computer Interface Experiments
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the design and development of Affective Pacman, a game that induces frustration to study the effect of user state changes on the EEG signal. Affective Pacman is designed to induce frustration for short periods, and allows the synchronous recording of a wide range of sensors, such as physiological sensors and EEG in addition to the game state. A self-assessment is integrated in the game to track changes in user state. Preliminary results indicate a significant effect of the frustration induction on the EEG.

متن کاملDistinguishing Difficulty Levels with Non-invasive Brain Activity Measurements
Passive brain-computer interfaces are designed to use brain activity as an additional input, allowing the adaptation of the interface in real time according to the user’s mental state. The goal of the present study is to distinguish between different levels of game difficulty using real-time, non-invasive brain activity measurement with functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). The study i...

The brain – computer interface (BCI) provides a communicational channel between human and machine. Most of these systems are based on brain activities. Brain Computer-Interfacing is a methodology that provides a way for communication with the outside environment using the brain thoughts. The success of this methodology depends on the selection of methods to process the brain signals in each pha...
