Reach Into the Mind: A Study of the Human Brain and its Application to Brain-Computer Interface

Overview

In our project, we wanted to test if we could control modern-day technology using an EEG headset. The purpose of our project is to see if we can improve and revolutionize mind-controlled technology. T o test our mind- controlled technology we paired a Neurosky mind wave mobile two headset, to our robotic arm. We powered our prototype using stepper motors and for our present design, we used Nema-23 motors. We used our minds to control the robotic arm, and we would be able to move it in any direction we desire. The Neurosky headset has three different aspects. We utilized all of them to be able to control our arms. Our science fair project has two main phases which allow us to improve upon our research on BCI (Brain computer interface) technology. The first phase is the creation of our prototype and to see if we can connect our EEG headset to our arm. So far in phase two, we have built a much-improved design, then our prototype. Soon, we will test our new headset on different people, and we want to see how brain waves differ from person to person. We plan to use this research, to implement it into an A.I database that can improve upon the reliability, consistency, and accuracy of BCI technology. The goal is to have a seamless arm that can be used by a variety of people including surgeons, engineers, and the average person.
