Abstract

This paper presents the feasibility of an electroencephalography (EEG)-based robot arm control system using a decoding of multi-directional arm reaching movement imagery. To do that, we have designed and implemented an experimental environment that can acquire non-invasive brain signals about multi-directional arm reaching movement. Five subjects participated in our experiments and the subjects performed four directional reaching tasks (Left, right, forward, and backward) with actual movement and movement imagery. The filter-bank common spatial pattern (FBCSP) was applied to extract spatio-frequency features from the acquired EEG signals. The regularized linear discriminant analysis (RLDA) was also applied as a classifier. As a result, the averaged classification accuracies of the actual movement and movement imagery were represented 67.04% and 59.19%, respectively. These results showed a feasibility of the EEG-based robot arm control system based on multi-directional arm reaching movement imagery.
