New supporting system for musicotherapy using computer processing

The purpose of this paper is to construct a new supporting system for musicotherapy. The supporting system is a combined system that is composed of two systems. One is an operation system that controls sounds and pictures with a multimedia personal computer. The other is a measuring system that measures four kinds of event-related physiological changes (ERPC) such as electroencephalogram (EEG), electromyogram (EMG), body temperature and micro vibration on the palm. The former system was used as the stimulation source to the subject. The latter system was used for observing the mental condition of the subject. This present report especially focuses the function on the proposed system for measuring the ERPC. In conclusion, a proof examination test that used the proposed system was implemented and the author succeeded in detection and measurement of the ERPC
