An EEG-based brain-computer system for automating home appliances is proposed in this study. Brain-computer interface (BCI) system provides direct pathway between human brain and external computing resources or external devices. The system translates thought into action without using muscles through a number of electrodes attached to the user’s scalp. The BCI technology can be used by disabled ...

Brain-computer interface (BCI) games can satisfy our need for competence by providing us with challenges that we should enjoy tackling. However, many BCI games that claim to provide enjoyable challenges fail to do so. Some common fallacies and pitfalls about BCI games play a role in this failure and in this paper we report on a study that we carried out to empirically investigate them. More spe...

Neuroengineering research over the last two decades has demonstrated promising evidence on use of brain-computer interface (BCI) to enhance functional recovery and independence in individuals with motor impairments. By translating brain activity, BCI bypasses impaired neuromotor system, control computers/machines. BCI-controlled robots are designed for assistance aid paralyzed patients as well ...

Abstract Arguably, automation is fast transforming many enterprise business processes, operational jobs into monitoring tasks. Consequently, the ability to sustain attention during extended periods of becoming a critical skill. This manuscript presents Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) prototype which seeks combat decrements in sustained tasks within an system. A brain-computer interface system us...

The P300-based brain-computer interface (P300 BCI) is currently a very popular topic in assistive technology development. However, only a few simple P300 BCI based-games have been designed so far. Here, we analyze the shortcomings of this BCI in gaming applications and show that solutions for overcoming them already exist, although these techniques are dispersed over several different games. Ad...

The present article explores the most popular approaches and best practices for design implementation of cognitive gaming interventions that combine Brain Computer Interface (BCI) systems with Virtual Reality (VR). We focus on target skills related to perception, visuospatial attention memory. To this purpose, we review techniques algorithms are commonly used data pre-processing, feature extrac...

We have conducted an experiment in which subjects controlled a brain-computer interface (BCI) without being aware that their brainwaves were responsible for events in the scenario. Ten subjects went through a stage of model training in steady state visually evoked potential (SSVEP)-based BCI, followed by three trials of an immersive experience where stars moved as a response to SSVEP classifica...

Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a way to control computers by using human brain waves. As the technology has improved, BCI devices have become smaller and cheaper, making it possible for more individuals to buy them. This allows BCI to be applied to new fields outside of pure research, including entertainment. We examine whether BCI devices can be used as a new gaming device, approaching it f...
