On the Modulation of Perturbation-Evoked Potentials After Motor Reaction in a Human-Machine Interaction Setup

Abstract

Passive brain-computer interfaces (pBCIs) can be used to inform humans about their current mental state or in human-machine interaction (HMI) scenario. We introduced the perturbation-evoked potential (PEP) in the context of pBCI and are further investigating how neural correlates in a HMI could interact. In the current study we investigate the neural correlates after perturbation followed by motor reaction. We found that the PEP as well as a movement-related cortical potential appear, and that the latter has an influence on the shape of the PEP.
