Biocybernetics: An Interactive Man-Machine Interface

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: AD0774987 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The research reported involves the detection of human bioelectric phenomena that have been made analogues of ongoing cognitive processes and the utilization of these phenomena to control andor communicate with external devices. The technique is applicable to situations requiring rapid human intervention in the control of complex systems operation. The major advantage of this project is the virtually automatic control of systems by the trained subject.
