Description
Summary:This paper poses a control interface to com-mand the movement of a mobile robot according to sig-nals captured from the user’s brain. These signals are acquired and interpreted by Emotiv EPOC device, a 14-electrode type sensor which captures electroenceph-alographic (EEG) signals with high resolution, which, in turn, are sent to a computer for processing. One brain-computer interface (BCI) was developed based on the Emotiv software and SDK in order to command the mobile robot from a distance. Functionality tests are performed with the sensor to discriminate shift inten-tions of a user group, as well as with a fuzzy controller to hold the direction in case of concentration loss. As con-clusion, it was possible to obtain an efficient system for robot movements
