Abstract:
This paper presents a novel wearable single-channel electrooculography (EOG) based human-computer interface (HCI) with a simple system design and robust performance. In the proposed system, EOG signals for control are generated from double eye blinks, collected by a commercial wearable device (the NeuroSky MindWave headset), and then converted into a sequence of commands that can control cursor navigations and actions. The EOG-based cursor control system was tested on 8 subjects in indoor or outdoor environment, and the average accuracy is 84.42% for indoor uses and 71.50% for outdoor uses. Compared with other existing EOG-based HCI systems, this system is highly user-friendly and does not require any training. Therefore, this system has the potential to provide an easy-to-use and cheap assistive technique for locked-in patients who have lost their main body muscular abilities but with proper eye-condition.
