Unveiling the mysteries of Brain Computer Interfaces
summary
Non‑invasive BCI pipeline: scalp EEG device → real‑time signal cleaning and feature extraction → per‑user machine learning calibration → closed‑loop feedback (e.g. robotic hand). Uses tools like openViBE and Lab Streaming Layer to stream and train in real time. Typical novice accuracy sits around 60% performance after short training and requires frequent recalibration; invasive systems (Stentrode/Synchron, microelectrode arrays) give clearer control for paralyzed patients but carry surgical risks and device degradation. Ethics and raw‑data access remain unresolved.
