Brain-Computer Interfacing for Games

Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) come with a lot of issues, such as delays, bad recognition, long training times, and cumbersome hardware. Gamers are a large potential target group for this new interaction modality, but why would healthy subjects want to use it? BCI provides a combination of information and features that no other input modality can offer. Current research is mostly still focusing on feasibility tests, where the relevant measures are limited to speed and accuracy. However, for general acceptance of this technology, usability and user experience will need to be taken into account when designing such systems.
