Evaluation of the User Adaptation in a BCI Game Environment

Brain-computer interface (BCI) technology is a developing field of study with numerous applications. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the use of brain signals as a direct communication pathway to an external device. In this work, Zombie Jumper is developed, which consists of 2 brain commands, imagining moving forward and blinking. The goal of the game is to jump over static or moving “zombie” characters in order to complete the level. To record the raw EEG data, a Muse 2 headband is used, and the OpenViBE platform is employed to process and classify the brain signals. The Unity engine is used to build the game, and the lab streaming layer (LSL) protocol is the connective link between Muse 2, OpenViBE and the Unity engine for this BCI-controlled game. A total of 37 subjects tested the game and played it at least 20 times. The average classification accuracy was 98.74%, ranging from 97.06% to 99.72%. Finally, playing the game for longer periods of time resulted in greater control
