Brain-Computer Interface

Brain-Computer Interface

The idea of moving robots or prosthetic devices not by manual control, but by mere
“thinking” (i.e., the brain activity of human subjects) has fascinated researchers for the
possibility to do so.How can brainwaves be used to directly control robots? 
 Brain-computer interfaces (BCI) use electroencephalogram (EEG) signals; i.e., the electrical brain activity
recorded from electrodes placed on the scalp. The main source of the EEG is the
synchronous activity of thousands of cortical neurons. Thus, EEG signals suffer from a
reduced spatial resolution and increased noise due to measurements on the scalp and online analysis of EEG signals, if used in combination with advanced robotics and machine learning techniques, is sufficient for humans to continuously control a mobile robot and a wheelchair or a prosthetic arm.

The brain controlled robot basically works on the principle of capturing the brain wave  signals utilizing it for the movement of robot. This when equipped with the wheel chairs of  disabled persons who can’t speak or move their hands will be useful for their movement independently. Here the brain wave analysis is being performed, the brain thoughts 1 is not being captured instead the brain concentration level is being measured.

Basically in Simple words we will design a System which will get the data from Brain and send over wireless module to the processor and it will Work accordingly, We decided to put EEG sensor which will take the data from the Scalp and send over a bluetooth module to Arduino and it will work according to the data we got.-

We will be getting raw data in from small voltages in form of different waves from the EEG sensors, it need to be calibrated and decide the threshold values for the different different waves for a particular function 

Basic Need of this Project

  • EEG sensors
  • Development board

Lie Detector

Lie Detector How can an Evil Genius be sure that their prisoners are telling the truth? By using a lie detector, of course. This lie detector (see Figure) uses an effect known as galvanic skin response. As a person becomes nervous—for example, when telling a lie—their skin resistance decreases. We can measure this resistance using an analog input and use an LED and buzzer to indicate an untruth. We use a multicolor LED that will display red to indicate a lie, green to indicate a truth, and blue to show that the lie detector should be adjusted by twiddling the variable resistor. There are two types of piezo buzzers. Some are just a piezoelectric transducer, while some also include the electronic oscillator to drive them. In this project we want the former type without the electronics, as we are going to generate the necessary frequency from the Arduino board itself. Hardware The subject’s skin resistance is measured by using the subject as one resistor in a potential d

Arduino Based Digital IC Tester Using MATLAB

Arduino Based Digital IC Tester Using MATLAB                             Testing of digital electronic systems generally involves applying a set of test stimuli to inputs of the device-under-test (DUT) and analysing responses of the system using a response analyser. If the DUT generates correct output responses (also called the golden response) for all the input stimuli, the DUT is regarded as fault-free. Those DUTs that fail to meet the golden response are regarded as faulty or defective. Block diagram for testing a device is shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 1: Block diagram for testing a device This project describes testing of 74xx series digital ICs using a MATLAB graphical user interface (GUI) drop-down menu based approach. MATLAB acts as the test stimuli generator to the IC, which is the DUT. The GUI initiates communication with the Arduino and provides a user-friendly and interactive approach to conduct the test. The MATLAB source program (ic_tester.m) acts as the respo
