Objective ICT-2011.5.5 ICT for smart and personalised inclusion
Brain-Neural Computer Interfaces
Building on previous research, the BNCI foci now are: adapting BNCI sensor technology for out-of-the-lab use, fusion of BNCI into multi-sensor and multi-modal interfaces solutions, and data/pattern analysis for interaction with ICT-enabled devices and applications. Modularisation, interoperability, and smart processing of BNCI/sensor inputs for increased efficiency (e.g. through predictive approaches) are expected to be key aspects. Work on interoperability of BNCI devices, in particular, should consider potential contribution to standardisation. Research should also explore possible synergies with mainstream application domains, e.g. in gaming, virtual reality or alternative user-to-ICT input in complex multi-task settings.
