摘要
A Brain Computer Interface (BCI) provides a new communication channel between human brain and the computer. This paper is concentrated on developing a BCI system, a Virtual Keyboard using the LabVIEW platform. The Electroencephalogram (EEG) signal contains the technical artifacts (noise from the electric power source, amplitude artifact, etc.) and biological artifacts (eye artifacts, ECG and EMG artifacts). Eye blink is one of the main artifacts in the EEG signal. But in this context the Eye blinks are not artifacts and are control signals to select the blocks/characters in the Virtual Keyboard. The kurtosis coefficient and amplitude characteristics of the eye blink signals are used to detect the control signals.
