Opening up the Design Space of Neurofeedback Brain-Computer Interfaces for Children
summary
A mobile EEG headset streams signals over Bluetooth to a Unity tablet app; two field studies with 50 children aged 5–10 in Nepal show prototypes are usable and effective at teaching self-regulation. The work produces five strong design concepts grounded in practice, uses embodied metaphors like a pinwheel blowing metaphor and culturally specific icons, implements real-time calibration and noisy-signal-tolerant games, and instantiates systems for sustaining calm, boosting attention, shifting sadness, and procedural pain reduction.
