Description
Summary:During the last decades, the robots started to play a crucial role in different fields that require human-machine interaction, e.g. robotics surgery, assistive robotics, space explorers. This paper presents the setup and results of testing a Brain-Computer Interface which controls a mobile robotic platform as a preamble to control a robotic wheelchair. The system was tested on two healthy users who gained a mean response time of the system of about 1.15 seconds. The applications are foreseen in assistive intelligent wheelchairs for high-level spinal cord injury paraplegics.
