Research Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop an eye-gaze input interface with using EEG signals and reactions of autonomic nervous system. To use averaging waveforms synchronized with a high-speed blinking stimulus faster than 5 Hz was proposed in order to determine a gazing blinking stimulus among those more than two with using EEG signals. The EEG signal data shorter than 2 s are sufficient by the proposed averaging waveforms while longer than 4 s are necessary by the FFT analyses. An eye gesture input interface with using combinations of eye movement was also proposed, and a compact and low-priced portable system for the eye-gaze or the eye-gesture input interface was developed.
