A low-cost EEG system-based hybrid brain-computer interface for humanoid robot navigation and recognition.

This paper describes a hybrid brain-computer interface (BCI) technique that combines the P300 potential, the steady state visually evoked potential (SSVEP), and event related de-synchronization (ERD) to solve a complicated multi-task problem consisting of humanoid robot navigation and control along...
