DESCRIPTION:Brain-Computer Interfaces provide a method to connect the human
  brain to a \ncomputer\, feeding thoughts from the subject to perform a ta
 sk. Using EEG \n(electroencephalography)\, we ‘read’ the subject’s choice 
 in regard to \nthe motion of a robot. While the subject focuses on options
  for motion on \nhis/her screen\, the robot follows the choice and moves t
 o the desired \nlocation. The subject sees the motion of the robot (often 
 far away) on their \nscreen\, and can keep making choices until they ‘reac
 h’ the desired \nlocation. Although currently targeted towards immobilized
  patients\, such \nsystems could potentially be the way we control the mac
 hines of the future.\n\nOur research is on the development of a BCI-driven
 -robot: both the interface \nand the experiments to run it. We will discus
 s the interfacing mechanism\, how \nwell the robot can be controlled and o
 ur work on developing a better system \nof ‘reading’ the subject’s brain w
 aves using artificial neural \nnetworks.
