A hybrid brain-computer interface implementation for the control of an assistive device

摘要

This paper presets an implementation of an brain-computer interface (BCI) used for the control of an assistive device designed for transfer operation of a motor disabled person. Key features of this device are presented, as well as the control architecture of the system. A hybrid BCI was used, combining the motor-imagery (MI) and the steady-state visual-evoked potentials (SSVEP) paradigms. The paper details experimental methodology, presents the obtained results and makes recommendations for future research.
