The impact of visual distractions in SSVEP-based BCI
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents the results of a user experiment designed to measure the impact of visual distractions when making use of steady-state visually evoked potential (SSVEP)-based braincomputer interfaces (BCI). Also the user experience when using such an interface is measured. A set of small applications was developed to simulate such a BCI using a gaze tracker. The impact of visual distractions is measured in two ways: using a gaze tracker to measure user focus, and questionnaires to determine how the user experiences the use of SSVEP-based BCI in a visually distracting environment. It is concluded that both the amount of user distraction and the user experience are dependant on the attention requirements of the application.

Development of a Brain Computer Interface (BCI) Speller System Based on SSVEP Signals
BCI is one of the most intriguing technologies among other HCI systems, mostly because of its capability of recording brain activities. Spelling BCIs, which help paralyzed people to maintain communication, are one of the striking topics in the field of BCI. In this scientific a spelling BCI system with high transfer rate and accuracy that uses SSVEP signals is proposed.In addition, we suggested...

Although the feasibility of brain-computer interface (BCI) systems based on steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) has been extensively investigated, only a few studies have evaluated its clinical feasibility in patients with locked-in syndrome (LIS), who are the main targets of BCI technology. The main objective of this case report was to share our experiences of SSVEP-based BCI experime...
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...
