Abstract

To translate brain activity signals into control signals for external devices a system called Brain–computer interface (BCI) is used. It is difficult for current BCI systems to provide the multiple independent control signals necessary for the multi-degree continuous control of a wheelchair. The present paper address this challenge by adopting the motor imagery based mu rhythm and the P300 potential to control a brain-actuated real time wheelchair. The main objective of the present work is to provide a greater number of commands for a wheelchair with increased accuracy to the user.
