چکیده
This paper presents a virtual reality brain computer interface (BCI) system which allows the user to interact physical objects in the ubiquitous home. The system is designed for motion disabled people to control real home facilities by a simple motor imagery and minimal physical body movements. While BCI research has mostly focused on improving classification algorithm, our BCI system uses a simple BCI classification method and the additional locking mechanism to compensate the BCI classification error. This paper describes the design, implementation, and user evaluation of our virtual reality BCI system for ubiquitous home control. The user study results showed the locking mechanism helped to improve user controllability which made the system more feasible and reduced user undesired BCI decision error rates.

Brain Computer Interface for Virtual Reality Control
An electroencephalogram (EEG) based brain-computer interface (BCI) was connected with a Virtual Reality system in order to control a smart home application. Therefore special control masks were developed which allowed using the P300 component of the EEG as input signal for the BCI system. Control commands for switching TV channels, for opening and closing doors and windows, for navigation and c...
