Unspoken Speech Detection Using a Non-Invasive Brain Computer Interface
| Défi: | Innovation | | Catégorie: | Sénior | | Région: | South Fraser | | Ville: | Surrey, BC | | École: | Semiahmoo Secondary | | Sommaire: | An 8 channel EEG device was constructed using an Arduino microcontroller and a TI ADS1298 in order to detect imagined musical note rhythms. A five letter word represented by 5 individual rhythms was detected in an average of 39.3 seconds using a novel classification method. This is quicker than the existing P300 Speller mechanism, known to detect a 5 letter word in 105 seconds. |
