Brain – computer interface (BCI) systems are typically used to provide disabled users with the functionality normally afforded by conventional interfaces. As BCI progress continues, BCIs may become useful for healthy users in specific situations. This paper briefly reviews existing BCI applications for healthy users and discusses several relevant considerations. Many potential applications are ...

Brain Computer Interface (BCI) has been recently increased in research. Functional Near Infrared Spectroscope (fNIRs) is one the latest technologies which utilize light in the near-infrared range to determine brain activities. Because near infrared technology allows design of safe, portable, wearable, non-invasive and wireless qualities monitoring systems, fNIRs monitoring of brain hemodynamics...

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) allow a user to control a computer application by brain activity as measured, e.g., by electroencephalography (EEG). After about 30years of BCI research, the success of control that is achieved by means of a BCI system still greatly varies between subjects. For about 20% of potential users the obtained accuracy does not reach the level criterion, meaning that BC...

Recent research suggests the brain can learn almost any brain-computer interface (BCI) configuration; however, contrasting behavioral evidence from structural learning theory argues that previous experience facilitates, or impedes, future learning. A study by Sadtler and colleagues (Nature 512: 423-426, 2014) used BCI to demonstrate that neural network structural characteristics constrain learn...

Automatic systems capable of understanding different facets of human communication will be at the heart of human-computer interfaces (HCI) in the near future. An HCI which is built on the guiding principle: "think and make it happen without any physical effort" is called a brain-computer interface (BCI). Indeed, the "think" part of this principle involves the human brain, "make it happen" impli...

The paper presents the Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) based home control system. The proposed system isused to facilitate the handicapped and needy persons. Neurosky headset is used to detect Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal from brain activity. Recognizing the brain activity for certain thoughts and eye blinking patterns, we managed to correlate them with the switching and regulation of certa...

Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is an alternative communication system which allows users to send commands and/or messages toward the outside not crossing the normal output channels of the brain, but conveying these outputs from the human brain to a computer (Wolpaw et al., 2002). In an EEG-based BCI messages are obtained from brain activity. This study presents a novel P300 based Brain Computer...

Brain Computer Interface helps and enables people through their mental activities to perform applications and to operate devices. Now-a-days research in this field has matured through many prototypes like brain controlled wheel chairs, games etc. Based on this BCI must come out of the lab to the world and to be applied to real time applications. This makes us to focus on the development on life...

The input of a video game can vary from keyboard, mouse, controller, and plethora other methods. electroencephalogram (EEG) is cap worn on the head that detect electrical signals in brain. This device becoming seen as either an alternative to traditional controllers or supplement. EEG be used with computer become Brain Computer Interface (BCI), where feedback loop created between direct BCIs ar...

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...
