Project Instruction
Objectives
The aim of this project is to design a brain computer interface system for stroke patients. The Emotiv EPOC neuroheadset is used to obtain brain signals, while BCI2000 software platform is utilized to design a signal processing software. A robotic hand is designed to support stroke patient’s hand and give feedback. The system should be able to identify users’ intention of moving fingers, and let the robotic hand move as intended.

The aim of this project is to utilize the Emotiv Brain Computer Interface system to develop and control a robotic limb support system for stroke patients. The Emotiv allows non-invasive recording of electrical brain activity (EEG), which will be utilized for controlling an applicator. The Emotiv also includes a software development kit. Students will acquire skills in signal processing, feature extraction and feature classification. Further, the students will gain experience by designing a basic medical device.
