The system uses electroencephalogram (EEG) sensors to measure brain waves and employs algorithms to differentiate between the bioelectrical wave patterns for control commands such as left, right, accelerate, and brake. The researchers also developed an interface that connects the sensors to a computer-controlled car, enabling it to be driven with the user's thoughts. "In our test runs, a driver equipped with EEG sensors was able to control the car with no problem--there was only a slight delay between the envisaged commands and the response of the car," says Freie University Berlin professor Raul Rojas.
