TOBE: Tangible Out-of-Body Experience
We propose a toolkit for creating Tangible Out-of-Body Experiences: exposing
the inner states of users using physiological signals such as heart rate or
brain activity. Tobe can take the form of a tangible avatar displaying live
physiological readings to reflect on ourselves and others. Such a toolkit could
be used by researchers and designers to create a multitude of potential
tangible applications, including (but not limited to) educational tools about
Science Technologies Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) and cognitive science,
medical applications or entertainment and social experiences with one or
several users or Tobes involved. Through a co-design approach, we investigated
how everyday people picture their physiology and we validated the acceptability
of Tobe in a scientific museum. We also give a practical example where two
users relax together, with insights on how Tobe helped them to synchronize
their signals and share a moment
Ocular attention-sensing interface system
The purpose of the research was to develop an innovative human-computer interface based on eye movement and voice control. By eliminating a manual interface (keyboard, joystick, etc.), OASIS provides a control mechanism that is natural, efficient, accurate, and low in workload
A LightGBM-Based EEG Analysis Method for Driver Mental States Classification
Fatigue driving can easily lead to road traffic accidents and bring great harm to individuals and families. Recently, electroencephalography-
(EEG-) based physiological and brain activities for fatigue detection have been increasingly investigated.
However, how to find an effective method or model to timely and efficiently detect the mental states of drivers still remains a
challenge. In this paper, we combine common spatial pattern (CSP) and propose a light-weighted classifier, LightFD, which is
based on gradient boosting framework for EEG mental states identification. ,e comparable results with traditional classifiers,
such as support vector machine (SVM), convolutional neural network (CNN), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and large margin
nearest neighbor (LMNN), show that the proposed model could achieve better classification performance, as well as the decision
efficiency. Furthermore, we also test and validate that LightFD has better transfer learning performance in EEG classification of
driver mental states. In summary, our proposed LightFD classifier has better performance in real-time EEG mental state
prediction, and it is expected to have broad application prospects in practical brain-computer interaction (BCI)
Embedded system on high performance data for wearable augmented reality of eye blinks, muscle stress detection movement and observation
Eyes blinking and its movement can portray many reasons of the body and health state. Eyes can blink intentionally and sometimes randomly even in sleeping mode. Thus, the aim of this paper is to discover and observe the relationship between the frequency of eye blink and the level of eye muscle stress. The eye track data is fed directly into the electroencephalogram (EEG) record for parameter classification and identification. The EEG signal might have an artifact that has been analyzed and converted the observation into the mathematical library and repository software (HPC). The artificial neural network (ANN) is integrated with EEG digital data by the derivation of the mathematical modelling. The function of ANN is to train a large sparse digital data for future prediction of eye condition associated with the stress level. In order to validate the model and simulation, the numerical analysis and performance evaluation are compared to the real data set of eye therapy industry, IC Herbz Sdn Bhd. A library and repository software of mathematical model using EEG record data is developed to integrate with wearable augmented reality (WAR) based on EEG sensor device for predicting and monitoring the real time eye blinks, movement and muscle stress
