Application Of Brain Computer Interface For Physically Challenged Individual

A Brain Computer Interface (BCI) is a computer based system that acquires brain signals, analyse them and translates them into commands that are relayed to an output device to carry out a desired action. The main goal of BCI is to replace or restore useful function to people disabled by neuromuscular disorders. BCI helps researchers to use brain signals complex control of cursors, robotic arms, prostheses, wheelchairs, and other devices. This paper gives an insight into the various techniques that can be implemented on BCI and the challenges faced by researchers to implement it . The proposed work intends to build a proto type using BCI to improve the communication capabilities of people living with disabilities or locked in syndrome.
