چکیده

Brain-computer interface (BCI) performance has achieved continued improvement over recent decades, and sensorimotor rhythm-based BCIs that use motor function have been popular subjects of investigation. However, it remains problematic to introduce them to the public market because of their low reliability. As an alternative resolution to this issue, visual-based BCIs that use P300 or steady-state visually evoked potentials (SSVEPs) seem promising; however, the inherent visual fatigue that occurs with these BCIs may be unavoidable. For these reasons, steady-state somatosensory evoked potential (SSSEP) BCIs, which are based on tactile selective attention, have gained increasing attention recently. These may reduce the fatigue induced by visual attention and overcome the low reliability of motor activity. In this literature survey, recent findings on SSSEP and its methodological uses in BCI are reviewed. Further, existing limitations of SSSEP BCI and potential future directions for the technique are discussed.

Steady State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) - based Brain Spelling System with Synchronous and Asynchronous Typing Modes

The paper presents an EEG-based wireless brain-computer interface (BCI) with which subjects can mindspell text on a computer screen. The application is based on detecting steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP) in EEG signals recorded on the scalp of the subject. The performance of the BCI is compared for two different classification paradigms: synchronous and asynchronous modes.
