Los sistemas de interfaz cerebro-computadora basado en EEG: características y aplicaciones

Abstract

The Brain Computer Interface (BCI from its acronym in English) systems rely on the brain's characteristic of emitting electrical signals, and how through the register of these signals, computer commands controlling systems like wheelchairs with motors can be generated. BCI systems have many applications, but their principal objective relies on offering people with motor impairment the possibility to convey the intention through the electrical signal modulation from theirs brain activity. In this article it’s presented a brief description about what is a Brain Computer Interface (BCI), its characteristics; and are described its origins, evolution, constituent elements, brain’s signal treatment contemplating the cerebral function, and most relevant applications.
