Diseño de un prototipo de plataforma móvil a partir de eventos cerebrales generados en el lóbulo frontal

Abstract

Encephalographic signals (EEG) are electrical signals produced in the brain by the action of the development of some activity or in a resting condition, these signals are currently being used for the development of computer controls to create communication interfaces between the user and the machine [5]. In recent years the encephalographic signal (EEG) has been studied, in order to find solutions to improve the quality of life of people with severe motor disability, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, quadriplegia or paraplegia, multiple sclerosis among others [7]. One of the solutions proposed that seeks to take advantage of brain stimuli focuses on creating transportation methods for people with some type of disability referred to above; This document contains the results obtained during the development of a system that addresses this solution that seeks to take advantage of the encephalographic signals generated during a muscle movement to generate a brain-computer interface (BCI), during this process the development is sought of an EEG signal acquisition system with the aim of controlling a platform, where the process of development, design and construction of the acquisition card is explained step by step to be able to amplify and digitize the acquired signals, which will later be treated by means of a graphical interface designed to parameterize and visualize each one of the channels and from these generate a control of a mobile platform [8]. The objective of the system obtained during the development of this work is to serve as a basis for creating systems that take advantage of brain stimuli, giving the person with a disability greater freedom when moving.
