Multi-command Tactile Brain Computer Interface: A Feasibility Study

The study presented explores the extent to which tactile stimuli delivered to the ten digits of a BCI-naive subject can serve as a platform for a brain computer interface (BCI) that could be used in an interactive application such as robotic vehicle operation. The ten fingertips are used to evoke somatosensory brain responses, thus defining a tactile brain computer interface (tBCI). Experimental results on subjects performing online (real-time) tBCI, using stimuli with a moderately fast inter-stimulus-interval (ISI), provide a validation of the tBCI prototype, while the feasibility of the concept is illuminated through information-transfer rates obtained through the case study.

Multicommand Tactile Brain Computer Interface based on Fingertips or Head Stimulation

The paper presents results from a computational neuroscience study conducted to test vibrotactile stimuli delivered to subject fingertips and head areas in order to evoke the somatosensory brain responses utilized in a haptic brain computer interface (hBCI) paradigm. We present the preliminary and very encouraging results, with subjects conducting online hBCI interfacing experiments, ranging from 40% to 90% with a very fast inter-stimulus-interval (ISI) of 250ms. The presented results confirm our hypothesis that the hBCI paradigm concept is valid and it allows for rapid stimuli presentation in order to achieve a satisfactory information-transfer-rate of the novel BCI.

Vibrotactile Stimulus Frequency Optimization for the Haptic BCI Prototype

The paper presents results from a psychophysical study conducted to optimize vibrotactile stimuli delivered to subject finger tips in order to evoke the somatosensory responses to be utilized next in a haptic brain computer interface (hBCI) paradigm. We also present the preliminary EEG evoked responses for the chosen stimulating frequency. The obtained results confirm our hypothesis that the hBCI paradigm concept is valid and it will allow for rapid stimuli presentation in order to improve information-transfer-rate (ITR) of the BCI.
