Low complexity approach for controlling a robotic arm using the Emotiv EPOC headset

TLDR
The results obtained indicate that the proposed approach is effective for detecting the eye-wink commands with a good rate of accuracy (over 93%) and allowed the development of a Head-Computer Interface that enables complete interaction with a robotic arm.
Abstract
A relative simple approach based on the computation of the area of a parametric curve produced by the 2D space representation of a set of parametric experimental functions defined by the signals of only two active EEG electrodes of a low cost neuroheadset (Emotiv EPOC) is proposed on this paper for the fast recognition of eye winks activity as control commands. This approach together with the use of the signals from the gyroscope available in the EPOC device, allowed the development of a Head-Computer Interface that enables complete interaction with a robotic arm. The results obtained indicate that the proposed approach is effective for detecting the eye-wink commands with a good rate of accuracy (over 93%).

Comparison of linear, nonlinear, and feature selection methods for EEG signal classification

TL;DR: The results of a linear (linear discriminant analysis) and two nonlinear classifiers applied to the classification of spontaneous EEG during five mental tasks are reported, showing that non linear classifiers produce only slightly better classification results.

Spatial spectra of scalp EEG and EMG from awake humans.

TL;DR: Spatial spectral peaks suggest that optimal scalp electrode spacing might be approximately 1cm to capture non-local EEG components having the texture of gyri, as an alternative to network approaches that decompose EEG into localized, modular signals for correlation and coherence.
