Brain Computer Interface
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract: The Brain computer interface is one of the most enchanting breakthrough for the society as a whole, as it is set to benefit the technical industry, medical word and even the military. This interface is concerned with the control of devices surrounding our environment such as the computing gears and even automobiles in the near future without any physical intervention from the user. It can be utilized as a tool which helps to bridge the communication gap between the society and the disabled. It’s prime focus will be on people suffering from brainstem stroke, a spinal cord injury or even blindness. BCI is set to help such patients to retain or restore communication with the outside world. This is achieved by a signal acquisition technique and converting these signals available from the sensors placed on the scalp into real-time computer commands that can be visually operated and understood. It has nothing to do with the natural neural transmission of brain signals but extracts them with the help of sensors to be processed and direct the outputs to an external device. This may also prove to be a major military gadget where troops may communicate their thoughts in highly stressed situations without breaking the hush. But, as every technology have some merits and demerits, so does BCI.
