An Adaptive Interface for Controlling the Computer by Thought
From: Basque Research - 06/13/2006

A researcher from Pamplona, Spain, has developed an adaptive interface that
enables users to operate a computer with their thoughts. Public University of
Navarre PhD candidate Carmen Vidaurre Arbizu recently defended her doctoral
research on a brain-computer interface (BCI) technology that takes
instructions from the brain's electroencephalograms. Previous BCI
applications did not give users feedback, and subsequent technologies, while
able to display brain patterns on a screen, could only be used by a limited
number of users. Arbizu's system provides experienced users with feedback
upon the first use. The user and the system adapt to each other to the point
that initial trial sessions can provide feedback without corrupting the
experiment. Experiments with the technology have shown that most people are
capable of learning how to direct an adaptive BCI. The interface has four
components that, respectively, acquire and process the brain signal, extract
its characteristics, classify it, and issue feedback.
