Title: Motor prediction in Brain-Computer Interfaces for controlling mobile robots. Author: Geng T, Gan JQ. Journal: Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc; 2008; 2008():634-7. PubMed ID: 19162735. Abstract: EEG-based Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) can be regarded as a new channel for motor control except that it does not involve muscles. Normal neuromuscular motor control has two fundamental components: (1) to control the body, and (2) to predict the consequences of the control command, which is called motor prediction. In this study, after training with a specially designed BCI paradigm based on motor imagery, two subjects learnt to predict the time course of some features of the EEG signals. It is shown that, with this newly-obtained motor prediction skill, subjects can use motor imagery of feet to directly control a mobile robot to avoid obstacles and reach a small target in a time-critical scenario.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
