Human - Computer Systems Interaction: Backgrounds and Applications 2: Part 2 (Advances in Intelligent and Soft Computing)

Springer, 2011

It is demonstrated that spectral characteristics of steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) in a brain-computer interface (SSVEP-based BCI) depend significantly on the stimulus parameters, such as color and frequency of its flashing light. We postulate these dependencies can be used to improve the BCI performance –...
