Abstract
The paper presents preliminary results of the work with the Emotiv EPOC+™ system, which enabled in binary way control of objects. The system reads the brain waves from 14 plus 2 references electrodes. The controlled object was stepper motor with encoder released by the B&R company. For communication between the PC and engine control module was used Ethernet POWERLINK protocol, which allows data transfer with a minimum cycle time of 200 μs. Completely omitted PLC controller, which function was taken over the PC.
