USING BRAIN-COMPUTER INTERFACE TECHNOLOGY AS A CONTROLLER IN VIDEO GAMES

Abstract

Nowadays, control in video games is based on the use of a mouse, keyboard and other controllers. A Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is a special interface that allows direct communication between the brain and the appropriate external device. Brain Computer Interface technology can be used for commercial purposes, for example as a replacement for a keyboard, mouse or other controller. This article presents a method of controlling video games using the EMOTIV EPOC + Neuro Headset as a controller.
