Abstract

This paper presents the research on the possibility of control of the 6-axis robot using a brain-computer interface (BCI) based on Steady State Evoked Potential (SSVEP) signals. In the first paragraph, general information about brain-computer communication are presented. In the next paragraph the used in investigations equipment is described. The recorded SSVEP signals and graphs obtained in initial tests are shown. In the last part, the experimental procedures and results of research are described.
