Classification of vision perception using EEG signals for brain computer interface

Patients suffering from Motor Neuron Disease (MND) and semi-paralysis have trouble to maneuver a conventional wheelchair independently. As a response, this research was conducted whereby an individual’s visual perception can associate to movement controls. The designed system could later on be in...
