Implementación de una interfaz cerebro computador basada en la interpretación del electroencefalograma para el control a distancia de dispositivos electrónicos

Abstract

This paper describes the design and implementation of a prototype off line brain computer interface (BCI) used to simulate the operation of a remote control operated only by means of brain activity. The system is based on the spectral analysis of brain activity during simple mental tasks performing. Seven independent modules were developed and implemented in the form of ActiveX controls. Every ActiveX control makes one processing stage required and when they are combined allows building the interface between the brain and the machine. The classification of the mental tasks associated patterns was done by a multilayer perceptron artificial neural network. The system implemented, can simulate the remote control of standard device like a TV or Radio by the brain. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
