Abstract :
One of the main goal of our research is the implementation of a real time brain-computer interfacing system able to interpret the EEG signal and, accordingly, to command different external devices. Our team proposes a new design for this kind of bio-instrumental systems, based on the concept of dynamic modularity of the entire system. The system is conceived as an independent, self-consistent unit that analyses and classifies in real-time different mental tasks for assisting persons with motor disabilities. In this paper we present some of the obtained results. At the end, this mobile unit (implemented with a PC104+ system) will be itself a modular, easily reconfigurable development platform dedicated to solve, in a more facile manner, different experimental classification paradigms.
