| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we explored a possibility to make a virtual keyboard system using brain signals. First, we measured brain activity using an electroencephalogram (EEG) and showed a possibility for decoding individual finger movements or its imagery from EEG signals. Next, using functional magnetic resonance imaging, we found that types of sequential finger movements can be decoded from preparatory brain activities in the premotor and supplementary motor areas contralateral to the moving hand. Finally, we proposed a method for reduction of systemic artifacts from scalp layers in functional near-infrared spectroscopy and evaluated its effectiveness. Taken all together, our results suggest that we can predict finger movements from non-invasive brain imaging techniques. This techniques could be used for constructing a brain-based virtual keyboard in future.
